              <text>A large group of demonstrators protest the film debut of Rising Sun on July 30, 1993. A cameraman can be seen in both photographs, documenting the event. In photo 067, the theater is visible, and a partial promotion of the film can be seen.&#13;
&#13;
The film was widely scrutinized by CAAAV and other political organizations for its xenophobic and racist portrayal of Asians, namely the Japanese. Activist groups took to protesting in order to “educate moviegoers about the film’s insidious stereotyping and the potential for anti-Asian violence its xenophobic messaging promotes" [1].&#13;
