PICTURES OF RESISTANCE

The new construction entrance to the Navy base on Jeju Island, South Korea. The fresh water stream empties into the sea. The Navy base cement pier would begin here. Professor Yang Yoon-Mo, still in jail for lying down under a construction truck, is now in his 13th day of fasting against the base.
Gangjeong villagers lying down to block road with banners.
Rocks piled up by villagers and supporters to block construction effort.
Fighting to save the soft coral.
Fighting to save these endangered species. When the sea bottom is dredged, in order for U.S. Aegis destroyers and aircraft carriers to port here, these will surely be destroyed.
