Video Description

What's it like to feel like a foreigner in a country you were born and raised in? Aju was born in Tokyo to a father from the Bahama's and a mother from Japan. She has spent almost all of her life in Japan and speaks native Japanese, but struggles to talk to other Japanese people. Why won't Japan accept mixed-race people?
