A proposito di questo titolo
This episode explores the history, culture, and resilience of the Ainu, the Indigenous people of northern Japan. From their deep spiritual connection to nature to their distinct language, clothing, and rituals, the Ainu developed a rich culture long before the formation of the modern Japanese state. The episode traces how colonization and assimilation policies in the 19th and 20th centuries led to land loss, language suppression, and cultural erasure. It also highlights contemporary Ainu voices working to revive traditions, reclaim identity, and gain legal recognition. Through history, storytelling, and modern perspectives, this episode examines what it means to preserve Indigenous culture in a modern nation-state and why the Ainu story matters today.
