Japan Times – Sushi Zen

Got up at 6.00 A.M. to take early morning photos of Matsuyama Castle. Grabbed a coffee and had a quick look at today’s Japan Times in the hotel lobby. In the paper there is an article about the entrance policy at Sushi Zen, it includes a few quotes from me taken during a phone interview a couple of weeks ago. I thought the piece was well written although I have to note that I didn’t stage an exhibition of my work but merely displayed two pictures as part of a group. I also learned about the situation at Sushi Zen through Facebook rather than after Japanese friends saw the sign. The actual quotes are correct and as I have said before excluding a group of people based on nationality (religion, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, age or any other factor) is unwarranted and does not help create the kind of tolerant society in which I want to live.

    I dislike people who exclude based on nationality as well. Thank goodness that isn’t what Okuhama-san is doing.
