in toni morrison's essay, “the foreigners home”, she talks about the “deracing of a westerner. “ how to experience without the artificial constructs of racism and white supremacy. after the human genome project was completed in 2003, proving there is but one human race, this means the stripping away of the very concept of different races, to actively challenge the fundamentals our minds use to perceive others. for myself, after living in asia for 15 years, this perspective means trying to experience without european influence—revealing what it means to be marginalized, overlooked, stripped of identity or history, and exploited for others' gain. #sumie_art #shodô #sumi ink #coarsebrush#書道家 #墨アート #kanji #shodo #japanese #japan #asian calligraphy #art #漢字 #書道
