What is the SIETAR Student Fair?

This is an event where students from various universities around Kansai will share their intercultural experiences with students from other universities. Presentations are short informal presentations (Poster presentations and discussion) either individually or in small groups. Topics in the past have included experiences of studying abroad, volunteering, service learning, travelling, and community engagement in both Japan and abroad.

This is a great opportunity to network with students from other universities, make new friends and get inspiration for the future.

Presenters needed!   

Presenters (individuals or small groups) will present to small groups in either English or Japanese in a poster presentation-style discussion. In addition to a poster on your topic/research, slides, pictures or items will make it more interesting.

Information about how to register as a presenter will be made available on the facebook page at a later date.

For spectators, no registration is required. All students are welcome!

About the film: On April 29, 1992, the Los Angeles riots started in South Central Los Angeles.  The riots were caused by the acquittal of four police officers on trial in the beating of Rodney King. The catastrophe claimed 55 deaths, caused more than 4,000 injuries, and cost $1 billion in property damage. LA Koreatown, the biggest Korea town in the world, was damaged severely in the riots. David D. Kim produced the film focusing on Koreatown of Los Angeles. The film, “Clash of Colors” offers unprecedented access into the most overlooked history of the riots through valuable footage and in-depth interviews from a balanced panel. (The film is 81 minutes and was released in 2012.)

 

About the speaker: Mr. Chanyu Ko is a documentary writer, and he visited Korea town in Los Angeles in 1991, 1992 and 2011 in order to do research. He published the book entitled, “Korea Towns in the US” in 1992. Mr. Ko received permission from Mr. Kim, the producer. Mr. Ko will talk about the background of the LA riots before the film and answer audience questions after the film.
