EPISODE 3 pt.2 🌺 Hajichi with Co Lewis & June Owatari

Ichariba Choodee: Okinawan Voices & Stories - A podcast by Mariko Middleton, Erica Kunihisa, & Tori Toguchi

Categories:

What is the future of hajichi? How does a shifting culture and identity of the Ryukyuan / Okinawan diaspora affect a practice such as this? Join co-host Mariko with returning guest speakers Co Lewis and June Owatari as they continue the discussion on the Ryukyuan practice of Hajichi, or traditional Ryukyuan hand tattoo.  Looking to the present day revival practices of hajichi, we will talk about the future of this beautiful practice, how it has adapted or changed, and what hajichi might look like in the future.  ... and of course, we’ll end with our Okinawa fun fact of the day.
