July 23, 2024 - End of Semester Long Form Assignment

After watching this video, I felt that Japanese people are really narrow-minded and ugly. Jasmine in this video is British, but she grew up in Ishikawa Prefecture and spent her elementary, junior high, high school, university and graduate school in Japan, and she works in Japan. Jasmine says that she is Japanese at heart because she has lived in Japan since she was born. However, she was bullied just because her face and hair color were different from Japanese people, and she tried desperately to change her attitude. It is no exaggeration to say that Japanese people are made of discrimination and prejudice. Despite being treated badly, Jasmine studied Japanese hard and got better grades in Japanese than Japanese students. As a result of her efforts, Jasmine got good grades, but other students asked her very discriminatory questions, such as why she was number one. This is a mass of discrimination. Japanese people care too much. They should only think about themselves, but they criticize and hurt others even just for their appearances. I think Japanese people should have a more generous heart and show understanding towards countries and schools with people of various nationalities. I hope that discrimination and prejudice will disappear from the world.
