DESCRIPTION:Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs&nbsp\;Korean Peninsula Aff
 airs Center presentsThe Unbearable Heaviness of Being: America Between Jap
 an and KoreaEven before the horrible COVID-19 pandemic erupted in late 201
 9\, it was tempting to blame everything wrong with American foreign policy
  on Donald Trump’s presidency. However\, the problem for Americans is that
  in some instances the Trump administration has simply unveiled the crass 
 and often racist practices that have long informed US government behavior.
  Put differently\, Donald Trump and his supporters exacerbate bad situatio
 ns\, yet some of the situations were bad to begin with. This is abundantly
  clear with regards to American policy towards mutual Northeast Asian alli
 es\, South Korea and Japan.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Alexis DuddenProfessor of History
