A
former barbershop around the corner from me is now going to be a school
of Okinawan culture and arts. (I took this picture of their sign with
my cell phone.) This is nifty for a couple reasons.
First, culture is just neat. Exposure to all sorts of different cultures is one of the big advantages of living in Hawaii.
Second, Okinawa is a culture I actually have some connection to! Yeah, I'm as anglo as the day is long, but a cousin of
mine (on my mom's side) lives in Okinawa, has a wife from there, and is
one of the top experts on Okinawa's pre-WWII history. So I've long had
more than a passing interest in Okinawa.
I think we'll all have to go check this place out.
