"Your identity is much more than your country or blood." Loved it. There was so much depth in her talk.

[@渡辺春樹-z7x]

No she’s wrong. You’re country and blood is the foundation to you’re identity.The mere fact that she’s doing this ted talk and not other another miss japan is because of her racial background, so you’re blood and your country is THE foundation of your identity.

[@tusharkashyap8688]

@@渡辺春樹-z7x You r definitely your country and your blood. But if you think it's limited to just that, then your wrong.

[@Sarika897]

it's mind-boggling how mixed-race people are still seen as an inconvenience or issue to some societies. we are more than the colour of our skin and where we come from. after all, internally, we are all the same.

[@bharati6]

Agree ...

[@battudeepthinayak7196]

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." I'm really glad she fought till end. She's an idol for inspiration. Truly inspiring.

[@vvsapale]

I can feel for her as being visited Japan few times and heard so many stories about the Japanese society I would easily say that closing the Japan for 200 years to other Japan has become monolith and sick society and the sickness is growing day by day and they are not accepting it. Sorry to say I have many friends in Japan but its professional relationship. No outsiders can fit into that society as they won't accept you easily and will keep reminding you every time. This girl had courage so she succeeded

[@shychefsadventure6609]

I dont thinks so... she has a little Japanese accent when she is talking. Its very mild, but its there.

[@dao-lam]

I don't think her accent sounds like people from India. Not quite from Japan either. I love her accent though. It sounds like a feminine robotic voice.

[@blacky93able]

Tremendously pretty and smart, who, despite the “setbacks” she suffered in her childhood, has continued forward with courage and determination and has triumphed. She is an example of the beauty of multiraciality in the world of art, sports and modeling, like many other examples: Bob Marley, Keanu Reeves, Brian Tee, Johnny Depp, Bruce Lee, Hideko Irabu, Jacqui Chan, Naomi Osaka, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ariana Miyamoto, Naomi Campbell, Kristine Musademba, Cher, etc... 👏🏻

She wouldn't win Miss World because she's not beautiful enough. This is what happened to her successors too, they were smart like her and became finalists but they didn't progress because they were not beautiful enough.
