Here’s one of my favorite photos taken February 28, 1976. Fifty years ago. This for the younger generations who think the opposition to the military control of Makua is a recent phenomenon.
Following a day-long rally across the highway on Saturday, Feb. 28, a group entered property, proceeded past a large Army warning sign, and planted a protest flag. Some of the kids in that photo are grandparents today and might recall their participation.

Thanks for this look-back into protesting against the military when it was a safe act of courage.
So fortunate for all of us that you were there to document it, and so beautifully!
Mahalo, Ian. Each photo in this series is priceless. SO we’ll done! I’m so grateful you were there to give a face a time when we ALL stood up! Thankfully, some of us are still standing.
