DESCRIPTION:Struggle for Justice: The Hoshino Art Show\nFumiaki Hoshino is the longest 
 held political prisoner in Japan. He was a student political activist and 
 leader in the protest struggle against the US military bases in Okinawa and 
 Japanese imperialism. On November 14, 1971, he led a demonstration in Tokyo 
 against permanently maintaining the US bases there with the nuclear 
 arsenal. An Osaka education women trade unionist Noriko Nagata and a 
 policeman were killed in the protest, and the government has sought to 
 blame the deaths on protest leader Hoshino. He was sentenced to life 
 imprisonment and has been in jail for 37 years, and is now filing the 
 second application for retrial. He has also received support from trade 
 unionists in Japan and the US.  He met his wife Akiko after he was jailed 
 and she has been fighting for his release. She will present his watercolor 
 pictures painted in the prison and speak about their international 
 solidarity campaign.\nA video on his case and the struggle during that 
 period edited by Manabu Minagawa will be shown during the exhibition 
 period.\nhttp://fhoshino.u.cnet-ta.ne.jp/\nSee
