In 1995, an Okinawan schoolgirl was brutally raped by several U.S. servicemen, triggering a chain of protests. Using this event as a point of reference, Inoue explores how Okinawans began to regard themselves less as a group of poor and oppressed people and more as a confident middle-class citizenry. However, the Japanese government has simultaneously pressured Okinawans to support a continued U.S. presence. Inoue deftly connects local social concerns with larger global strategies.
