Yasuke - the African Samurai
One of the most fascinating historical figures of all time imo; a former-slave (likely) from Mozambique who was sent to Japan by Portuguese Jesuits and became a retainer under Oda Nobunaga. What a story!
I hope you guys enjoy

In Japan, during “the Civil War Era” also known as the “the Sengoku Era”, there was a period when power had been fragmented among numerous samurai. During this time, three powerful warlords tried to unify the country under their rule. Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
There is a poem known to Japanese schoolchildren that presents the distinct styles of these warlords and their characters. A parable was told that each of these three leaders was gathered in a garden when a bird landed on a limb. A Zen Master then asked each of them what they would do if the bird doesn’t sing.
