"the poor have the gospel preached" - Anti-Nuclear Energy Protesters





Anti-Nuclear Energy Protesters in the Governmental District in Tokyo

The portion of land they occupy belongs to the Japanese Government.  So, they tried to drive them out in vain in this year.

It is just beside a lane to the Office Building of  the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.  So, the protesters have been harassed by security guards employed by the Ministry that has been promoting nuclear energy in Japan for decades.

As it is not on the public road, the police cannot arrest them.  Besides, every Friday evening thousands of anti-nuclear energy demonstrators gather and march around  the National Diet Bldg, and the Prime Minister Office near to this street.  Therefore, this way of occupation for protest seems to have acquired a kind of legitimacy for its presence.

The big blue letters read as a "Tent for Breaking with Nuclear Power Generation."

This photo was taken on a recent Sunday by EEE-Reporter himself.
