About the African samurai, Yasuke.
I learned about him fairly recently too. The end of his life struck me as brutal.
My understanding is that no one actually knows what happened to him in the end.
I mean how everyone began to treat him in the absence of the emperor. I don't know, maybe I'm just used to Japan being an innately ethnically warm culture.
