What binds the U.S. and Japan together in 2022? Were are the points of friction? How is Japan changing and what does that mean for the region and world? How do Japanese and Americans view each other? What images of Japan have been prevalent on American television?

Sponsored by the USC U.S.-China Institute, the Japan Society and the National Consortium for Teaching about Asia, this is a workshop for educators and students to join our workshop focusing on the evolving U.S.-Japan relationship and on trends in Japanese society. The workshop will include presentations and discussion with Japan specialists and brainstorming on how the ideas examined might be brought to life in K-12 classrooms.

Parking, refreshments and lunch will be provided those who join in person. Those attending in person or via Zoom will all receive relevant articles and additional materials.
