*Message from Phil*

Each seminar will start with a talk about the presenter's home country, followed by a q & a session. 

In the second half, we will focus on a particular topic. We will read an English article and have small-group discussions about different themes. Hopefully we can chat about difficulties that foreign residents have living in a foreign country, especially the foreign people living in Japan. Not 100% decided, but provisionally the topics for each seminar will be...

①　Experiences of living in a foreign country  

②　Islam (and other religions) in Japan 

③　Race and the BLM movement in Japan 

➃　Working life in Japan

➄　Marriage and family in Japan

➅　Ageing and life as an elderly resident

We will try to keep the discussion free and not too difficult so that everyone can join in and talk about their experiences. For the discussions we will separate into 3 or 4 small groups, each of which will be led by an English-speaking foreign resident. Hope to see you there :-)
