Hi Blog. Japan’s sometimes inhospitable hospitality industry<\/a> has yet another example<\/a> of exclusionism<\/a>. Will we legally have this stopped<\/a> by the 2020 Olympics<\/a>, or will Japan as a society<\/a> allow these people to be an embarrassment? Dr. Debito Arudou<\/p>\n

\nHi Debito,<\/strong><\/p>\n

I spotted a Japanese only sign near our Air BNB in Asakusa.<\/em>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[Japanese version<\/strong>: None of our staff at this establishment speak foreign languages, so we refuse entry to all people from overseas (<\/em>kaigai no kata)].<\/em><\/p>\n

I took it down and they put a new one up the next day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Details:<\/em>
\nName: 100 (izakaya)\u00a0(Momosaku \u767e\u4f5c)<\/strong>
\nAddress: 4 Chome-7-12 Asakusa, Tait\u014d-ku, T\u014dky\u014d-to 111-0032<\/strong>
\nhttp:\/\/tinyurl.com\/yb9uv3tz <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Picture of sign and front attached.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI was wondering what I could write in Japanese as a review on Google Maps to make potential visitors aware that the izakaya has a racially discriminatory policy.<\/em> \u00a0Sincerely, KD<\/strong><\/p>\n
