Sports are for Everybody: Histories of Extracurricular Athletics and Disability Inclusion in Japan and US

Join us for a conversation focused on how sport and education reveal a society’s structures and values. In particular, the presentation will focus on Japan’s history of school sports post-1945, how changes in disability rights in Japan have impacted access to sports for youth with disabilities, and views on the future from recent changes.

Professor Atsushi Nakazawa (Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan) will present his recent research focused on school athletics for students with disabilities and the disability rights movements in Japan post-1945.

Professor Karen Nakamura (UC Berkeley) will be in conversation with Professor Nakazawa following his presentation.

The conversation and Q&A will be moderated by Dr. Fred Ariel Hernandez (UCLA/UCI).

This event will have CART Captioning.
