My thesis is not about the people of Ainu, but how the Japanese and Western intellectuals discussed and used the "whiteness" of the Ainu race. White and yellow races are the products of Western imagination. When the West first discovered or mentioned the Chinese, the Japanese and the Ainu during the 1500s, they were all classified as "white" people. The West at the beginning of the eighteenth-century classified the Chinese race as part of the yellow race and the Chinese embraced and even celebrated this new racial classification due to their long cultural history of identifying the color "yellow" as good and positive color. The people of Ainu were classified as "Caucasians," because from the Western intellectuals' perspective, the Ainu physically looked like the white people in the West. By focusing on how the Japanese intellectuals discussed and utilized the "Caucasian" Ainu, we can see how Japan struggled to accept the Western imagined classification of the Asians as part of the yellow race. Many Japanese intellectuals after the Meiji Restoration of 1868 resented the fact that they are now part of the yellow race. Some believed that the Ainu were the pre-historic Japanese people and this fact made the Japanese into the "Caucasian" race. Others used the "white (Caucasian)" Ainu to cope with the fact that the Japanese race is part of the "yellow" race. The "white" Ainu exposes how the Japanese intellectuals resisted the yellow race and struggled to maintain the "white" racial status attained when the Japanese people were first discovered in the 1550s.
