The status of women at that time was so low that they could not even use the same wash tub to wash their clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her samurai husband, whom she married when she was 25 years old, was a drunkard who threw a sword at the child she was holding. Feeling that her family was in danger of being violated, Kajiko ran away from home with her children and slapped a letter of separation on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After her divorce, Kajiko became a teacher at a primary school in Tokyo. She met an American missionary woman named Mrs. Maria T. Pitcher True [1840-1896]. Kajiko was offered the job of headmistress of a girls&#8217; school. She became the first principal of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshigakuin.ed.jp\/\">Joshigakuin<\/a>, which still exists today. There, Kajiko taught the students to &#8220;govern themselves&#8221; and abolished all school rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She advocated women&#8217;s suffrage, monogamy, abolition of prostitution, and prohibition of alcohol. Kajiko was involved in many activities and at the age of 90 attended a world conference in the U.S. where he strongly advocated for peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The life of Yajima Kajiko, who devoted her life to the liberation of women and the education of women in a Japanese society where people did not respect women as human beings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-supplement-normal\">reference: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yajima_Kajiko\">Yajima Kajiko&#8221; (en.wikipedia)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are you living with a mission?<br>Why Yajima Kajiko now?<br>In Japan, where contempt for women still persists<br>What the movie &#8220;If You Can&#8217;t Be Strong, Be a Hero&#8221; tells us.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yajima Kajiko, a pioneer of the women&#8217;s liberation movement, was born in the age of the samurai and lived during the period of Japan&#8217;s modernization.<br>Based on the book &#8220;If You Can&#8217;t Be Strong, Be a Hero&#8221; by Ayako Miura. The film is directed by 90-year-old Yamada Hisako, the oldest female director in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kajiko, played by Takako Tokiwa in the lead role, created Jogakuin (Women&#8217;s Academy) and Kyofu-kai (Woman&#8217;s Christian Union), and left behind many achievements, including monogamy, women&#8217;s suffrage, prohibition of alcohol, abolition of prostitution, and participation in disarmament conferences in the United States. The author, Ayako Miura, once said, &#8220;If I had known Yajima Kajiko earlier, my life would have been very different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Director Yamada has made films about women active in Japan at the dawn of the modern era, such as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gendaipro.jp\/fudeko\/\">Piano of Angels<\/a>&#8221; starring Takako Tokiwa, which portrayed Fudeko Ishii, a pioneer in the education of mentally handicapped children, and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gendaipro.jp\/ginko\/\">A Grain of Wheat<\/a>&#8221; starring Mayumi Wakamura, which depicted the life of Japan&#8217;s first female doctor, Ginko Ogino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This film is based on the life of Yajima Kajiko, who dedicated herself to the women&#8217;s liberation movement, with a message for all women living today. The screening campaign is still ongoing throughout the country starting in February 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u5973\u6027\u306e\u5730\u4f4d\u5411\u4e0a\u306b\u5c3d\u529b\u3057\u305f\u77e2\u5d8b\u696b\u5b50\u306e\u751f\u6daf\u3092\u6620\u753b\u5316\" width=\"728\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UIGNx9mYZIo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
