| Â | www.debito.org: The "Kuni Bengodan" Info Site, making the Japanese govt take responsibilityfor racism in Japan |
| | We believe all levels of Japan's legislative, administrative, and judicial branches have a responsibility to keep their public promises--both those enshrined in the Japanese Constitution and affirmed under international treaty--in order to create a society where everyone, regardless of race, nationality, or appearance, can have their legal, civil, and human rights protected. | | | This must change, especially at the national level, as a lack of safeguards will mean licence to the xenophobe. | | | Consequently, this legal team, the KUNI BENGODAN and its members, will act as a support and action group to draw attention to this issue, filing suit against the national government for negligence under international treaty, and pushing for the establishment of laws in Japan to make racial discrimination illegal. |

| Â | Japan Forum - Discussions - Is racism really an issue in japan? |
| | Racism is certainly not only an issue in Japan. | | | A particular example of what makes you feel the way you do would help much more than just stating a general opinion. | | | It may sound cheezy but, "Can't we all just get along?" The simple fact is that stating a problem, such as racism in Japan, without proof or examination, is unsustainable and false because there is nothing to back it up. |

| | But Japan is an extraordinary embarrassment among major developed nations: There is no civil or criminal law to make racial discrimination in Japan illegal. | | | Critics of government policy and media coverage say that foreigner-related crime figures are rarely compared with Japanese crime figures, and that they mislead the public by stigmatizing non-Japanese. | | | In a speech last year, he argued that foreign criminals were taking advantage of "our low level of caution and lenient penalties" to target Japan: "a defenseless nation with lucrative opportunities." And this past December, Ishihara's warning grew more specific. |
