larry gray's koza riot



in what has become a december ritual as seasonal as making new year's cards or pounding mochi, this week i returned once again to the scene of the 1970 koza riot.

lawrence k gray was an mp on okinawa at the time - and he asked me to liaise with a museum on the island to donate over 50 photographs which he took on the day after the riot.

some highlights of these unique images can be seen here
