Japanese photographer Ko Yoshioka's photo book "Okinawa 69-70 / Okinawa 69-70 (With OBI)". Born in Nagano Prefecture in 1944, after graduating from Tokyo Polytechnic University, he lived in Okinawa and worked as a photographer. Ko Yoshioka, who was also a caster and producer of "News Station" and "JNN News Special" in the 90's, was active as a producer and journalist in documentary production and books on war, conflict, and poverty issues. This book is a collection of photographs published with volunteers in 1970 when he was a photographer, and is composed of works that have won the quasi-sun award of the Heibonsha "Sun Award". The joint statement by the US and Japanese governments in 1969 was a humiliating result from the perspective of Okinawa, in which Japan actively took over the US military strategy for Asia based in Okinawa in exchange for the return of Okinawa in 1972. I did. A book that can be called a masterpiece of photojournalism that depicts a series of Okinawa struggles, such as the current situation and suffering of Okinawa, anger and resistance to the United States and the Japanese government, and independence activities. With obi. (Recorded in The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990)
