About :
Mariko is of Japanese descent, but was born in Brazil. Her family has been in Brazil for 100 years, and yet she still goes through embarrassing situations where her nationality is questioned. And anyone who thinks that these questions are not unpleasant is mistaken. People often go too far when they ask her about her skin color, her eyes, and even her genitals. There is also pressure on Asian descendants regarding their intelligence. This myth may even seem positive, but it is not. The type of intelligence attributed to Asians is very specific: rationality and discipline to learn the content given and get a good grade. And that's it. Focusing on this idea, as positive as it may seem, takes away the possibility of seeing Asian people as emotionally intelligent, with artistic potential, athletic ability, charisma, and a vocation for leadership. And to prove that this association has nothing positive in it, just look at how Asians were treated after the discovery of Covid-19. Mariko herself has witnessed a terrible situation: in a video call, everyone put on masks when she went online. There were situations where people had alcohol sprayed on their faces, and so on. Feeling Brazilian, even though she was born here in Brazil, was a very difficult journey for Mariko. But today she understands that the way to demystify prejudice against Asian people is through dialogue.
