People could live anywhere.
When I got a social security card, I had to check my origin. In my case, I was Asian. I looked up ‘white’ ‘Native American’ ‘Asian’ ‘African American’ etc…
I dislike division. I’m always wondering why we need divisions. I’d like to erase discrimination through my work. Therefore I need to learn our history from the voice in your heart.
Native land. Occasionally it means your original place. It’s important to everyone. We all belong to this land. Yet I think the important thing is not really the land. It’s our heart.

好きな言葉

 

全てが人間の手によって作り変えられてしまった地球をけしからんというつもりはないけれども、そうした変化に対しては責任を負わなければならないと思う。つまりいつの日か、空を飛ぶ鳥の姿が消えてしまったらーそれはとても悲しい日になるだろうがーその時には鳥とは違う何か、人間のつくりだした何かに飛んでもらいたい。滅んでしまったかわいそうな鳥に負けないくらい美しく、人間の興味をかきたて、豊かな隠喩となる何かが、鳥の代わりに空を飛んでいてほしいと思う。
