15. Navigating Japan's social hierarchies and migrant hostilities - Dreux Richard Poverty Unpacked podcast

    • Society & Culture

The myth that Japan is a place where you can work your way out of poverty has been a pull for Nigerian migrants for several decades, only to be met with a hostile immigration system, dirty and difficult work and strong social hierarchies.

In this episode, Dreux Richard speaks about his new book 'Every Human Intention' - an in-depth exploration of post-Fukushima Japan, including its Nigerian community.
