Embedded Racism: Japan's Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination is a 2015 non-fiction book by Debito Arudou, published by Lexington Books. The book discusses how in Japan the concept of the Yamato people and Japanese citizenship are closely intertwined and how that affects non-Yamato Japanese citizens. Jeff Kingston, director of Asian Studies at Temple University Japan, wrote in The Japan Times that the book is "a fuller scholarly elaboration" of the author's beliefs regarding "politics, policies and perils of an exclusionist national identity". Within the book Arudou contrasts the treatment of people who conventionally appear Japanese, defined as Wajin (Yamato people), versus people who do not, known as "visible minorities", regardless if the latter have Japanese citizenship or are

  • Embedded Racism: Japan's Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination is a 2015 non-fiction book by Debito Arudou, published by Lexington Books. The book discusses how in Japan the concept of the Yamato people and Japanese citizenship are closely intertwined and how that affects non-Yamato Japanese citizens. Jeff Kingston, director of Asian Studies at Temple University Japan, wrote in The Japan Times that the book is "a fuller scholarly elaboration" of the author's beliefs regarding "politics, policies and perils of an exclusionist national identity". Within the book Arudou contrasts the treatment of people who conventionally appear Japanese, defined as Wajin (Yamato people), versus people who do not, known as "visible minorities", regardless if the latter have Japanese citizenship or are citizens of other countries. The book states that people with Japanese appearances have societal advantages over citizens and non-citizens who are not visibly Japanese, and therefore the latter can be discriminated against on the basis of their races. Rebecca Chiyoko King-O'Riain of Maynooth University stated that undergraduate university students seem to be the primary market for this book. Tessa Morris-Suzuki of Australia National University stated that "the deep-seated assumption" that every person with an appearance differing from the typical Japanese person is not a Japanese person is a recurring "central issue". The second edition was released in November 2021. (en)
