Dear returning viewers, new narration voice because the old TTS voice was lost after changing laptop. Apologies.
will the new voice be the narration indefinitely?
It is extremely sad. The pristine talent is obviously unchanged but the original voice added a very important ironic dimension to the narration. Please do something 😭😭😭

Japanese Brazilian here, I'm a Sansei nikkei (三世日系人), my great grandfather intended to only spend a couple of years here, and come back to Japan (he literally registered my grandfather first as a Japanese citizen, and then as a Brazilian citizen), but he died of yellow fever, never fulfilling his plan to come back to his homeland.
On my end, I did experienced my fair share of prejudice in my own country, it isn't an everyday occurrence, but it's not uncommon for me to be seen as an outsider in my own country (especially in the countryside, where I live, because due to most Japanese Brazilians having risen above the social ladder in Brazilian society, many moved out of the countryside, where the immigration first started), in a family reunion of my wife's family (typical Brazilian family, with just white, black and pardo people, no Asians), one of her relatives asked if I knew how to speak Portuguese 😂😂
Eu também me sentia bem deslocado durante a minha infância, mas a gente acaba se acostumando com isso KKKKK
I am a chinese born in venezuela and it's the same thing here, locals compliment my spanish thinking I'm an outsider and ask me why I am here...

as a third generation japanese-brazilian I can say that the japanese culture is not melting and disappearing here, brazilians are very good at integrating foreign culture into their own, specialy the food, Brasil is an interesting case talking about culture because most of what we have here is imported and mixed from other cultures and the country is too diverse because of it's verticality so you can't say that Brasil has 1 main unique culture, like people from the south have strong german influence, people from southeast have strong italian influence and people from the northeast have strong african influence, I think Brasil will never be melt and mix into only 1 culture
Besides, Japanese culture has never been this popular in history. It’s low key a soft-power and offers to its people and related groups a certain prestige. Even if there’s discrimination, everyone will find it interesting that you’re from Japan, where a lot of modern Brazilian pop culture was created - things like cartoons, movies, literature, plants, dances, moral takes, religion and myths, and cuisine.
Brazilians love Japanese food. Our version of Japanese food, but it's still Japanese food 😅
Yes, I'm a german-brazilian with no intention of "melting" my heritage away. We can coexist just fine. I wish that the japanese and other people also preserve their uniqueness.
There are a myriad of collaborations in culture, science and history amongst modern day germans and german-brazilians. There are many german descendents that have married outside their ethnicity and/or live in big cities. Obviously there are some remote communities that are more traditional. But this concept of isolated Black Forest culture that you refer to is not real in a broader sense. There are no Amish communities that reject modern technology in Brazil. German-brazilians are very much in tune with the globalized economy, establishing trade worldwide. And I've yet to find a german living in Germany that thinks that their own culture being preserved outside Germany is "weird". Most are amazed and happy about that fact. Germany itself has a lot of regional differences in culture and dialect. And so do the germanic settlements in Brazil. There were immigrants from Autria, Prussia, Luxemburg, Netherlands, Switzerland, modern day Czech Republic and others that contributed to the modern notion of a german-brazilian. It's not possible to generalize, when history and reality tend to be much richer than we suppose.@@digitandoshshua
Well, having german citizenship, having lived in Germany for many years, having a grand-aunt that lives in Austria and also visiting on a regular basis, I have a totally different experience than yours. People in the Palatinate, for example, are very fond of germanic culture in Brazil and I'll provide you with an example below. Moreover, the Bavarian style oktoberfest is in itself a image of a "fantasy land" if you want to put it that way. But it is an enourmos event in Germany and outside, most people go there, wear lederhosen and dirndl as a way to celebrate the culture, but then go back to their globalized day to day live, wearing jeans and t-shirt and even being able to communicate in english. So it is in Germany, and so it is in oktoberfests outside of Germany. It is admitedly a nostalgic and exagerated celebration of the bavarian culture. But so is carnival in Brazil, nobody goes around dressing and acting on a daily basis as they do in a carnival parade. Well, that was just my vast experience I cannot deny it just to make you happy.
When you say that "people are scared to evolve and exchange costumes" it gives the impression that you have ignored my whole statement about german-brazilians being very much in tune with the globalized world of today and working on multinationals. But cherishing ones heritage doesn't necessarily conflict with that. And I do differentiate german-brazilians from Germany born and raised Germans that do not speak portuguese because I know that culture and language are always evolving. I find it somehow funny that you want to cherish brazilian diversity, yet advocates against a certain community having a diverse culture inside Brazil. As if we all need to be the same melted blend of "brazilian" or something. It just isn't possible seeing that Brazil is continental.
It is also important to remember that you are not the one that defines what is "cultural as in a particular and unique way of doing something." Whatever that means. But I'll give you an example “A Saga dos Alemães - Epos der Deutschen”, with 2,000 pages in Portuguese and German, was presented by the author Erni Guilherme Engelmann personally at Hunsrück in three stages - 2004 Volume 1, 2006 Volume 2 and 2007 Volume 3. Engelmann's perseverance and commitment to Hunsrück and its people led in 2013 to a partnership with the city of Simmern. On September 28, 2013, as part of the premiere ceremony of the film by Edgar Reitz “Die andere Heimat”, Mayor Andreas Nikolay for the city of Simmern and Joel Wilhelm for the city of Igrejinha signed the Certificate of Partnership in Simmern. Engelmann's recent death was noticiated in a local Hünsruck newspaper in Germany with great respect and admiration.
I've never for a single moment said that African, Arabic, Indigenous, Japanese, Italian, Portuguese culture are not relevant to Brazil. You are making false assumptions. They are very much integral to brazilian culture. I for one drink chimarrão on a daily basis, and that comes from the Indigenous of South Brazil. In fact, portuguese, african and indigenous culture are more prevalent than germanic influence in Brazil. And that is perfectly fine. No harm, no foul.
And if you have germanic heritage than you should know more than anybody that german-brazilians are not living "Black Forest ancient lifestyles". Wouldn't you be a prove against that assumption? And also there are many people that get satisfaction and happiness from work. And that quality is one of the main reasons germans tend to be so industrious and organized. And admired for it. It is for each one to define what it means to be brazilian, seeing that Brazil is a diverse recent nation. And more importantly, it's to each one to define what makes one happy. Not others.
I hope this exchange was fruitful in some way, as I do not seek an altercation. That was my 2 cents on the matter and I hope you have a great life.@@digitandoshshua

It's a bit hard to explain to non-brazillians why does brazil, a latin american country, has so much Italians, Germans and Japanese, and how thats have very little to do with ww2
Only to ignorant gringos that thing everrything is mexico full of sameish people. Anyone with half a brain know america is the land of inmigrants, and that america is not the US.
Primeiro que não é latino americano, afinal de contas nenhum país americano fala LATIM que é uma língua morta, nenhum foi COLÔNIA da Itália e Latinos são povos da região da Lazio na Itália, segundo você quiser referir aos países de línguas espanhola e portuguesa o certo é IBERO AMERICANO, se falar só dos países de língua espanhola é HISPANO AMERICANO, se se referir só ao Brasil é LUSO AMERICANO, agora qual é a dificuldade de explicar? Sendo que o Brasil é o segundo maior assentamento europeu fora da Europa só depois dos Estados Unidos e em terceiro lugar está a Argentina, qual a dificuldade é que você não sabe de história e geografia
Sem contar que os italianos que são realmente os Latinos verdadeiros assim também como portugueses, espanhóis franceses e partes da Suiça também são povos LATINOS, que dificuldade se os Latinos são CAUCASIANOS Europeus,povos indeoeuropeus que falam língua Européia
@@atlas567eu me considero latino americana, com licença?
@@atlas567os italianos não são latinos no sentido original, na verdade os latinos eram um dos povos itálicos, como sabinos, oscos, umbrios, venetos e etc. Com a expansão romana, os outros povos itálicos, assim como povos não itálicos da Italia como os gregos no sul e os estruscos/tirrenos/toscanos do norte também foram assimilados. O Império Romano assimilaria toda a europa ocidental posteriormente, incluindo a peninsula ibérica, a gália e a britannia. E isso criou uma cultura românica ou "latino-europeia" em vários lugares da europa e os colonizadores da américa latina tinham/tem essa cultura, replicam as instituições romanas, o direito romano, o latim vulgar. Ao meu ver o debate interessante é sobre se a Inglaterra é latina ou não, já que sem duvidas o inglês passou por um processo de creolização na Idade Média e se tornou extremamente latinizado. Aliás, o que me fascina nas culturas insulares, é exatamente esse multiculturalismo, onde existe essa coexistencia - muitas vezes não harmônica, é verdade - entre a cultura gêrmanica, latina e céltica, derivada das sucessivas ondas de invasões.
Já sobre a sua obsessão caucasiana, vá para a Chechênia ou para o norte do Iran. Lá você vai encontrar gente da etnia que você gosta.
Japan and Brazil have a deep connection, so we should cooperate more. Japan only looks at the United States and Asia, so we should look more at countries such as Brazil. Currently, China seems to be closer to Brazil than Japan.

As a Brazilian-Italian I can confirm 100% of this video is accurate.
It was only when I moved to Italy that I discovered: Culture is MUCH more relevant than race/ancestry. I am "genetically" half-Italian but 100% culturally Brazilian. Nobody sees me like Italian, and honestly, I love it.
It is just SO amazing that in my country integration was stimulated rather than segregation; To know that there's no "Brazilian fenotype" because of that (not talking about racism tough because, sadly, it still is a thing).
This. Those dna tests are not only shit, but they don't tell you anything about what you are. Culture determines what you are, and I hate when americans come in Europe and say they are european because some ass dna test online said they were 13 % irish/italian/german, despite them not speaking a word of the language, and then they tell you that blacks can't be european, despite them actually speaking the language and having grown up in europe for all their life.
Very true
Now, if only said integration had produced a decent culture...
Yeah, amazing result indeed: in 2018 the homicide rate in Brazil was 26 per 100k, while in Italy 0.85 per 100k.

I'm an Italian-descendant Brazilian. I live in São Paulo, in a upper middle class neighborhood called Moema. It's a nice place to live in the city. There was a Donut Café here that was a good place to spend a couple of hours talking to your friends. I used to go there with my girlfriend and she noticed that the friggin place was ALWAYS packed full of Japanese people. My neighborhood is not known by its Japanese people, I seldom see one of them here. Nevertheless, the place always had a bunch of them. One night, I walked up to the manager and said: "can I ask you a question?", which he replied: "you're gonna ask me why there are so many Japanese people here, right?". I said: "yes, how did you know?", as he replied: "everyone asks us that." Then I said: "ok, so why do many Japanese people show up here so regularly?". He make a funny look and said quite theatrically: " I DO NOT KNOW". Apparently, it just happened for some unknown reason. Nobody could ever explain that.
Provavelmente é comportamento de colônia, como se diz. Ainda existem "japoneses" (brasileiros ascendentes no caso né, enfim) que só andam com japoneses e frequentam locais aonde japoneses vão. Isso gera efeito manada. Por exemplo, o Shopping Santa Cruz sempre teve muito nipo, algumas escolas específicas de SP sempre tiveram muito nipo (ao ponto do apelido do Etapa virar Ejapa), etc.
Why not asking them directly instead of trying to find someone who can explain it?🤔🤭
@@celsowaka6838 Asiatic people (specially the Japanese) keep to themselves here in Brazil. They walk around together, they get married to one another and they have a tendency of not mingling. That doesn't mean they don't mingle at all, but if you see a bunch of people not speaking the country's language in public, that's a clear sign they wanna be left alone as rude as that sounds.
Another thing, I wouldn't go to a strange table in a Diner just to ask: "why do you yellows keep bunching together here?" That would sound kinda creepy.
@@metodoinstinto I'm into the Japanese culture in Brazil and I'm afraid that your comments are based on some old stereotypes. First, Interracial marriages are pretty common among the Japanese community. Many Brazilian famous Japanese descents are mixed (Sabrina Sato, Daniela Suzuki, Lyoto Machida, Arthur Nori, etc). I'm friends with an uncountable amount of mixed ones as well.
Second, most of Japanese descendents can't speak the language of their ancestors, so if you hear a group speaking Japanese in public, they will probably be native Japanese people. Unless this could be a remote hypothesis where Japanese descents were gathering in order to practice Japanese.
And yes, you are right, some of them (not all) tend to walk around together, but they will certainly speak Portuguese with each other, not Japanese.
@@celsowaka6838 Yeah,there were like only 4 japanese people in my school,counting me but I am actually mixed,it was impossible for me to not mix,even if I wouldnt want to.

The city I live have a considerable influence of japanese. In 1930 around 250 japaneses founded a village a few miles from the city, since then they had impacted a lot the city, not much culturally but economically. A few weeks ago they organized the first japanese festival here, with the participation of a Japanese ambassador. I don't think their culture will die so soon.
If you know the history of the Japanese, you can predict that Brazil will become the new Palestine

Something I might add is that Japan and Italy had a more skiled labor force than Brazil at the time, specialy in the 20 century tail end of the imigration, so Japanese and Italian imigrants became important on Brazil industrialization.
My favorite example is that Brazil was, at least 4 years ago it was having, ever time record coffe plantations mostly becase of increase use of machinery that was developed by 2 companies, one founded by japanese imigrants and one founded by italian imigrants.
The japanese fed Brazil. And the Italians industrialized it.
@@Lcsmu Yamasa and Jacto are two relativily sucesseful companies that have been founded by Japanese imigrants and make machines for farm work.
And also the presence of japanese people im Brazil helped establish the bonds between the two contries that were also very beneficial for the industrialization of the country, spawning thinks like USIMINAS and big ship building projects in the 60,70 and 80s.
Maybe the Italians did more I dont know I am no specialisty, but the Japanese imigrant also were quite vital in the process.

As a "pure" Brazilian japanese, funnily enough, I have experienced much more unfortunate comments in "mixed" regions/states than in "pure" states.
For reference, Santa Catarina is known as being the most white state, people would treat me as something foreign, but with a high degree of respect, while in Rio Grande do Sul, a state notorious as being the most mixed in the South Region, mostly with indigenous people, the locals treat me with as many shitty stereotypes as they can.

Due to contact, we had access to things from Japan a long time before the US (which was having more contact with Chinese culture), so much so that even today in Brazil any immigrant of Asian origin is generally classified by the people as Japanese and most of the descendants of Asian immigrants here descend from the Japanese, here we always admire things that came from there, in addition to cooking and martial arts, manga and anime (way before US), in addition to Japanese pop music that was very popular in Brazilian urban centers especially during the 80s and the 90s, there in Japan they also appreciate things that came from here, I would especially highlight Bossa Nova, which was very popular with the Japanese and influenced a lot of urban music, in addition to popularizing Formula 1 racing there, mainly with Ayrton Senna.
As for the events of the past, I hope we have learned a lesson, and as a Brazilian, ask forgiveness for the forced assimilation and prevent people from speaking theumir language, even Italians and German descendants suffered from this.

my grandma was born in japan and her parents moved to brasil after ww2 but thank you for explaining part of brasil history 😊 👍
A curiosity: world famous soccer player Pelé's first girlfriend in his teens was a Brazilian Japanese girl. His last wife was also Brazilian Japanese.
0:50 Honestly that has been grossly overblown lately.
Although at the time there were a few politicians with shady eugenic intentions, the main goal was to get cheap labor with strong farming knowledge to work on plantations.
Brazil is Japanese version of Argentina where lot of Japanese WWII official going to Brazil.
There are also a lot of germans in the south of brazil
Germans as well haha

Brazil has so many Japanese, and they still don't like us living in their country
As a brazilian that comic at the end is so depressing like bro why does nobody help Brazil😭
Chora kkkkkkkkkk
very good video!! mostly accurate, although I don't think it's fair to say Brazil did this and that when up until September 7th, 1822, we were still under Portugal's control. And even after our independence, the country was still ruled by Portuguese royalty, in a monarchist system, until November 15th, 1889, when we officially became a republic. It's crazy to think that Brazil only truly got control of itself 134 years ago, when Portugal officially became an independent country in 1143, or 880 years ago (as of 2023).
This immigration policy started in the middle of 19th century, during monarchy, until the middle of 20th century, during republic. Actually the republicans were even more racists than the monarchists.
Small correction: not only japanese but all imigrants were exploited until 1932, where the period president, Getulio Vargas, changed the constitution, and oppened the path to fast indrustrialization, mainly in Sao Paulo, the most well developed state. Japanese imigrants began to make their own business and farms, shops and some of them are now success companies, especially in Food and construcution areas
The Japanese in Brazil, and the Germans in Argentina. Now all we need are the Italians.
Then Brazil again, because Italians were also a big part of the immigrants too. Oh, and the Germans in thr South aswell!
Also Italians: "Both"
Lol It's actually true, A large part of the Argentinian population are of Italian descent.
You already got all of them. You and Argentina. There are more Italian descendants in Sao Paulo than in Rome, isn't that wild? I'm Italian descendant too, living in another spot.
You got dozens of thousands of these just in the city of São Paulo.
During WW2, the USA pressured Brazil to side with the Allies. At that time there were already big communities of Italians, Germans and Japanese immigrants living in Brazil since the mid 1800s.
As a result the Portuguese language was made mandatory and all other languages forbidden, with immigrants that happen to have any nationality associated with the Axis being hostilized or even persecuted. Since then most immigrants lost their original languages, getting more aculturated with every new generation.
Brazilian-Japanese are one of the most gorgeous people
I agree. In the Philippines, there are plenty of Brazilian Japanese models. And they all look good. Plus, they do assimilate with the local culture; some even know how to speak Filipino.
The Italians were already making fortunes very soon. And some were eager to exploit the labor of other Italians arriving too
Anyway, by 1910 the richest men in Brazil and one of the richest in the world was Francisco Matarazzo, born in Italy as a poor man. He was so rich he financially helped Italy in WW1 and got a Count title for that.
Also, in the South of Brazil the situation was different. No huge plantations. Italian and German immigrants arrived to create their own cities and towns and work in small scale family farms in their own lands.
"It is better to be in prison in Italy than to be free in Brazil" Letter from an Italian immigrant who came to Brazil
Ou seja ele fez o L kkkk
Sim. O país de herança escravista, de concentração de terras e que incentivou a imigração de europeus para aumentar a proporção de brancos no país não ofereceu as melhores condições de trabalho para estes mesmos imigrantes.
Don't think it will vanish at least in a medium timespan. They are very traditional and their culture is increasingly popular. A large portion of turism in thr cities with major japanese communties are due to the japanese imprint in thse places. A lot of people depend of that as their income, or profit well from the interest in Japantowns. It would be in their best interests to keep it alive. And it's japanese we are talking about. Even forced assimilation didn't strip them from their identity. They are a people known for being resilient and very fervent upholders of traditions.
I kinda miss the old voice love your new video
Same.
What are the odds! Just right when I was wondering why there are so many Latin Americans listen to 80s Japanese city pop a few days ago, this video was uploaded
Im a white brazilian and i have a load of japanese-brazilian friends, all of them born in brazil, and i feel quite impressed how i managed to penetrate their bubble, because even at school they tend to interact mostly between them. None of them speak japanese perfectly tho, probably because most of them are 3rd or 4th generation immigrants, but all still "pure blood" japanese
We are and always will be treated as gaijin or foreigners by the “native” japanese and by the brazilians
@@rafaelkoki874that's bullshit. You guys only like to talk or be around the people of the same culture like you. It's really hard to date and be friends with japanese Brazilians if you don't look like them. It's kinda the same with any other recent asian immigrants. The only cheerful happy ones that is easy to be friends with are the south brown Asians. That's at least how it is in my city that had a ton of japanese immigration, you won't get inside of their bubble if you don't look japanese. It's terrible and frustrating if you are interested and like japanese culture.
@@rafaelkoki874 I'm not Brazilian or Japanese, but as an outsider looking into Japan, it's a little weird to see the disdain for Brazilians of Japanese heritage, even if they're purely Japanese in terms of ancestry. I've read about the Japanese government *paying* these people to leave to go to Brazil again. Even native-born Japanese people can be discriminated against and seen as "contaminated" for having lived outside Japan for some period of time. I understand it: Japan is obsessed with purity in more than one way, but it's weird and it must feel very discouraging for Japanese-Brazilians.
Terceira ou quarta geração de imigrantes? Me poupe, né. Eles são brasileiros. BRASILEIROS!
Tem boa parte já que não é "puro sangue"
Brasil actually managed to make it's population whiter, most people living here are mixed and it's actually rare to see someone with standard african features, as an example I'm considered white but I have a black grandgrandfather and an Italian/portuguese ancestry
Not exactly, it did raise the population of white people, but later it declined, during the sixties for example Brazil was around 60%~ white, in the 2010s it was only plurality white (white were the largest group but were less than 50%) and in the last census now Pardos are the plurality, that's not a bad thing tho, we just returned to the demographic status quo before the high rates of immigration in the old republic, we are at very similar demographic like the Second Empire (except with less black people, those got mixed over time, from 30% to 10% now)
@@jackyex that's what I said, mixed people nowadays consider themselves to be white, and yeah it is not a problem it is actually a good thing!
@@jackyexBro, apparently you didn’t know to interpret his comment.
it is quite shameful desperately and intentionally "whiten" a one country. by doing that you acknowledged colorism and skin hierarchy 💀💀
@@elitedangeroustheworldnext9086 you need to understand the context here, 80 years ago racial theory was considered a reality, that's why the national socialists got in power in Germany, nowadays we know it's all bullshit.
Brazil is a new world country that passed a lot of reforms for immigrant attraction but I think they changed the mechanics in the sequel.
A fun story: my great grandfather was a teacher in japan.
But when he found out that japanese were coming to brazil (lol) he said "but who is gonna teach them japanese???"
He then left his (wife's) house and brought his family here to brazil so he could teach japanese people how to write japanese. In brazil.
The story my family tells is that his wife got really frkn mad because in their house in japan they had a tennis court, and now they had to live in a house with straw ceiling and floor made of dirt.
Thinking again, maybe it wasnt so fun, but i really appreciate their efforts since i am here now 😅
You forgot one big detail: Brazil gave land to the immigrants. Immigration wasn't about exploiting cheap labor,it was about developing new communities and the country.
It... kinda was about exploiting cheap labor, though? The Italian immigrants were often treated like sh!t because their Brazilian land owners were far too accostumed to commanding slaves as opposed to actual free labour. And I can't remember the details, but Japanese immigrants were quite often discriminated against for about half a century aswell, I guess.
@@mekingtiger9095 ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
they kinda didn't lol, you still had to buy it
@@mekingtiger9095 Brazil also had a policy of promoting European immigration to 'whiten' the country, since they saw having a white population as being more modern and productive
Depends on the region, the time they came and the type of immigrants. Italians in São Paulo were not given land, but Germans in the South were.

Weird Fact: There are more people of Japanese descent in Brazil than in the USA, but people in America don’t like that so they keep changing the english wiki page to say the USA has a larger population of Japanese.
... Wow, I didn't know about the wiki page thing. That's... new.
USA really doesn’t care who is in it, we can’t keep track anyway
No we don’t. We know Brazil has a larger population of Japanese because the US does NOT have a Japanese population. Do you mean illegals?
1) Americans do not care.
2) …why would anyone care? 😂
3) America does have the most Japanese. The USA in general tends to have the most of X diaspora.
I think it's Brazilians that keep changing it. Brazil does not have more Japanese than the U.S., not even close. The "2 million" statistic is an estimate from a Japanese website that was counting all Brazilians with either full or partial Japanese heritage, including ones that moved back to Japan. If the U.S. were to take that same estimate it would be like over 10 million, but nobody counts partial Japanese or expatriates. Brazil doesn't even have more than 1 million Asians, you can look this information up.
Muito legal um video de vocês sobre o povo que sou descendente, sou descentede de japones aqui no Brasil e sempre acompanho os seus videos!!!
Actual answer to "why italians": Because it was part of the marriage agreement between emperor D.Pedro II and future empress Tereza Cristina, princess of the Kingdom of the two Sicilies (current Naples and Sicily). This is also why nearly all italian families in Brazil are from the south of Italy.
No. I'm a Italian-Brazilian, im my region almost all italians families came form Lombardia, Veneto, Emiglia-Romagna and Trento.
Southerns Italian were a minority in Italian Imigrantion to Brazil
@@user-yd1gu1fg7k Looking only at your region is still 1/5 of all italians that came to Brazil, so still a minority considering Brazil has 5 regions. And if by region you actually mean state, it's even more of a minority considering Brazil has 26 states, so 1/26. Look at the other regions of Brazil and you'll see that the majority are from the former kingdom of the two Sicilies. In fact the very stereotype, that we have of Italians as being loud and gesturing (ask any Italian), and they'll agree, is the behaviour of southern italians.
Either way, my coment was the answer to why italians to begin with, in the beginning, that was the answer. Of course later, with the proclamation of the Republic, there were other waves of imigrants from all over the world, inclueding Italians, and therr was never a restriction as to what region of Italy was allowed here or not. But ever since the marriage between D.Pedro and D.Teresa Christina until then, so some 40 or 50 years approximately, the treaty was yes only with the kingdom of the two siciles. So by the time the other waves came, you have the pioneer italians from the south already settled here added to the others that came later from all regions of Italy INCLUEDING THE SOUTH.
As a Brazilian, I have to confirm that it's not very hard to find Japanese people or descendants, considering I even had a classmate who was a descendant.
It depends on the region of Brazil, I think that in the northeast region it is difficult to find any Japanese people.
Nossa, você teve UM colega de classe japonês? Anda em Sp e guarulhos, você vê japonês e chinês por todo lado.
As a Japanese-Brazilian dude i confirm that
3:47 now do Macau!
even when I immigrate to other countries, from Asia, I will integrate somewhat but will primarily still speak my national language, and teach my children my way of life
isso aí, faça o mesmo
Not me, I think if I'm moving to another country, I should 100% integrate into it.
@@DioTheGreatOne i respect your opinion
as a brazilian of dutch and galician ancestry i don't know anything about the netherlands lol most brazilians are fully integrated in brazilian society regardless of ethinic background. my family worship Yoruba gods in shinto shrines and speak portuguese
Are you half dutch? You're not the only person from Brazil I've seen that has mentioned having Dutch ancestry, but at the same time, it doesn't seem as common to me as other ethnicities. Or at the very least, everyone's mixed with something like "mainstream Portuguese". I know Brazil has a lot of descendants of German immigrants. The Dutch diaspora seems more numerous in South Africa and the English speaking countries.
@@murkywaters5502Mais de um milhão de descendentes de holandeses no Brasil principalmente no Nordeste e em Minas Gerais
@@murkywaters5502o nordeste foi invadido pelos holandeses, a grande maioria de pessoas loiras aqui são descentes de galegos e holandeses, provavelmente até eu tenho sangue holandês kkkkkk..a família do meu pai é toda loira.
Mixing is more common now, but its crazy how its still hard to find japanese people married to other (non japanese) brazilians here.
Me and my 5 cousins are the 4rth generation (getting close to 5th) and all of them are, genetically, fully japanese (except for me lol).
They used to hate "mixing" back in the day, but now it just sorta happens, its more likely for the descendants to have more in common to another japanese and bond due to all of that.
Even though my mom is Portuguese and my dad is Brazilian-Portuguese, once someone asked me if I were Japanese, I asked why and he replied 'your eyes are kinda similar' and I was like whoa, hold on, it this possible ?
Maybe it's indigenous ancestry
Here in Brazil sometimes we really can't distinguish between Japanese and Natives. It seems that Natives from SA have Asian ancestry, which is fucked up
@@vitormascarenhas4884 considering my ancestry, I doubt it was my case but well 🤔
@@vitormascarenhas4884the thing is, unlike what most people says, the natives from americas actualy came from Asia and not Africa

O mal do Brasil é o petismo!
I'm Brazilian and it's interesting that all the people that make up our culture at some point had to adapt to the mestizo society that is dominant here.
Don't trust this video guys, he is mostly just trash talking Brazil, many Japanese came here to Brazil after the WW2 as refuges, and over all, the 2 countries have good relationship.
The concept of "interracial" marriage is practically non-existent in Brazil.
It's just marriage.
And the last frame of the video got me a little...
There was a lady I met in Calabria, Italy who is Japanese but was originally from Brazil. Her name was Sonia, such a sweet woman, she made beautiful ear rings for my Nonna and I.
Excelente video! Um dos melhorss que eu já vi explicando sobre a imigração japonesa o brazil no séc 20. Abordou também temas sobre preconceito e segregação racial. Excelente video mesmo!
O mais curioso sobre como funciona segregação racial. É que Mixed Indigenas e Mixed japoneses basicamente tinham fisionomias muito parecidas. Mas por causa da Herança étnica e da melhoria economica que o japão teve, hoje os decendentes japoneses são bem melhores vistos e ocupam as maiores classes e lugares da sociedade brasileira. Mas apesar desse fato, a comunidade japonesa e asiatica do Brasil é bem prestativa com os nativos, implantando diversos programas de educação e intercambio. Coisas que o próprio Governo do Brasil carece de cumprir com as populações mais afastadas. China e coréia tem ajudado bastante também nos últimos anos. A comunidade asiática no Brasil cresce a cada ano.
Deixo uma ultima observação: Apesar de ser um pais racialmente diverso, ainda há muito racismo.
As a Brazilian/Italian I must say that Brazil>Italy.

Why did the Japanese always took the longest route to Brazil in the animations?
You have any videos about the Caribbean and why it's so diverse?
I'm third generation Brazilian/Italian, as a result of this "eugenics"
It's all because of an anime called Saint Seiya. It's more popular here than it was in Japan to the point that the japanese who loved that anime moved here, where they would find more sympathy.
2:53 not just japonese was repressed, the cultural policy was similar to the Franco regime in Spain (both were fascist so), attacking any local culture.
@@jotascript03 Man, they literally send the DOPS (Brazilian gestapo) to kidnap people toture and kill who doesn't spoke Portuguese.
Brazil doesn't have a sigular culture. Gaúchos for exemple, they live in uruguay, argentina, paraguay and south of Brazil (me included). The foreignest that lived here just wanted to live peacefully, actually more "Brazilian" coused problems for Brazilian government through independence movement (like the Cisplatina or today Uruguay) than a German or Japanese people just living in the interior trying to live their lives.
It was very similar to what happend in spain with Franco subjugating the Galicians and Basques
PS: The indigenous people were included at that persecution as well, the original Brazilian persecute for not speaking portuguese...
Brazilian Japanese here. Let me tell a beautiful love story: my great-grandmother and her sisters were heading to Peru on a ship that would make a first stop in Brazil. She was 19 and met my great-grandfather, they fell in love ❤ she stayed in Brazil and had 8 children. Her 2 sisters went to Peru and they only talked by letters and never met again. 😢
My great-grandfather died around his 40s but left a decent sum of money for her to raise her kids.
They married for love in a time it was very unusual.
