What a strange vintage we are. Constantly needing to photograph each thing, each moment. What other species demands to self archive everything? The same information, experiences, places visually captured over and over again. What do we expect to learn from it; from taking a picture of it all? No Coining - All Rights Reserved

Futenma Hanzai!

Back in May 15, 1972 the island of Okinawa reverted back to Japanese control. Ever since then every May 15th a Peace March is held to protest the US bases in Okinawa.
This particular march was shot on the back side of Futenma airbase at around 9:30 on Sunday morning. The protesters were chanting, "We are opposed to the base."
