Eta in Japanese history

Post by lwhitehead »

You want amazes me is that the Eta people for the longest time had to take it from all other social classes in Japan, due to the simple fact that they did the work no one else wanted to do such as Butchering Meat.


The Japanese Modern Mobs states that they were one of the social group they came from that and Gamblers, I know that killing an Eta was blameless but what about an Eta defending themselves from being killed.
