Black Sheep

This is the story of Isao Dazai, a Japanese-born man who has recently
immigrated to Australia with his family. The future that Isao lives in is a
world of mass race segregation where each of the world's cities have been
divided into three separate walled ghettos, defined by three 'mass racial'
categories: Asian, African and Caucasian. Living in Asian-Sydney, Isao knows
that simply wanting to cross the city's boundaries is one of the greatest of
crimes in this new world, as is his inability to leave his Japanese culture
behind. Within months of arriving in Sydney, he is charged with the crime of
multiculturalism and sentenced to Assimilation, a radical and invasive
punishment created by the Australian Government. This new punishment strips Isao
of his personality and skin pigmentation and leaves him with cold, white skin,
and nothing but a number to identify himself with.
