In this episode, Dr. Nosco dispels several misconceptions about individuality in Japan prior to the Meiji Restoration. We then contrast the protest movements of the 1860s in Japan to those of the 1960s, with Dr. Nosco sharing several fascinating anecdotes of personal experiences of the 1960s student protests in the US and Japan.
