Japanese men were also mistreated by their bosses, for example, they were given longer hours with shorter wages, and were assigned the jobs too degrading for white men to do.

His wife would share his bed a day from now. It was unthinkable he’d ever been infatuated with Joan, and that Queen Guinevere had sentenced him to two nights in the dungeons for kissing Joan, over which he and Perceval subsequently came to blows. He cringed at the notion. What a fool he’d been to not see straight away…
