I recall the Zengakuran Students Federation protesting the American footprint in Japan in the 1950s. May 1st (May Day) was their favorite snake dance occasion down through Yokohama and elsewhere.
Everyone was encouraged to stay on the base or the housing areas. We lived off base and got a dose of this nearly point blank.

There is and additional problem with US/Okinawa relations. That being Agent Orange storage and subsequent “leakage” during the Vietnam War years. Some vets have actually been awarded compensation for exposure to said chemicals (Rainbow Herbicides) as a result of their service on Okinawa. Yet, US Government continues to deny such chemicals were ever stored there, much less used there....
