President Obama Nominates Caroline Kennedy to be an ambassador to Japan. I think its good opportunity to have relationships between Japan and America. I read the article of Ms. Kennedy, and it was about her impression of Japan. She’s been to Japan when she was 20 years old, and also she’s been to Tohoku Japan as an ambassador. She talked with a woman who survived the disaster about their lives in temporary housing units and told the survivors that she admired their courage and resilience. She came to Japan many times, so I was surprised about it.

How often do we go see a movie with a strong female lead that we wouldn’t lump into the category of “chick-flick”? Even scarcer is a movie with a person of color in the lead role when the movie isn’t about that person’s skin color. Most films are predominantly white male characters. This typically leads to a very stereotyped version of the remaining types of people being represented. This is unfortunate for a number of reasons. More and more schools are implementing lessons based on films.
