Stop Hamaoka Nuclear Power Plant! 450 march in Nagoya.
In the morning of March 27, 450 people gathered in central Nagoya city for a demonstration to stop the operation of Hamaoka nuclear power plant run by the Chubu Electric Power Company. They paraded the busy streets with colorful placards in their hands. The rally started at 10:30, by which time the venue, Hisaya Odori Park Bus Terminal, was packed with people. They were all desperate to do something about the nuclear crisis. The participants all had brought colorful placards showing their personal messages. The parade was called for by young leaders, so it was full of innovative expression. (KIMURA Jo)
名古屋: 脱原発を歩こう!~ストップ浜岡パレードに450人
3月27日(日)朝、名古屋市中心部(久屋大通公園バスターミナル前)にておこなわれた、中部電力浜岡原発(静岡県御前崎市)の停止をうったえるデモンストレーションに約450人の参加者が集まり、繁華街を色とりどりのプラカードを持って歩いた。集合時間の午前10時30分すぎ、市街中心部の久屋大通公園バスターミナル前(名古屋市中区・栄中日ビル前)に着くと、すでにたくさんの人・人・人…。多くの参加者たちが何かをしなければ、とかけつけてきた様子を目の当たりにした。主催者だけでなく、集まってきたひとがそれぞれ持ち寄った、色とりどりのプラカードに、手づくりのメッセージが目を引く。若いリーダーが呼びかけたデモ(パレード)だけあって、新しい表現を工夫しようという意欲がみられた。(木村ジョウ)
