Poster Warning Against Koreans
"This Japanese poster, distributed by the Tokyo Ueno Police Station and supported by the Ueno Association of Anti-Crime and Security, appeared all over the downtown area of Tokyo in 1947. It warns the householder [housewives] to beware of dangerous robbers. With the Korean flag symbol as its central motif, it implies that Koreans are the likely criminals." From: Lee, Changsoo and DeVos, George. Koreans in Japan: Ethnic Conflict and Accomodation. Berkeley: U of California Press, 1981.
