In this picture, what seems like many chinese or asian civilians are all bundles up on one stone lodge as if they were protecting themselves from falling. this photo was taken in a downtown area in a asian country and during the 1950s. Before the photographer took the picture, the same thing was happenning. all of the people were still fighting and protecting themselves from falling. Afterwards, all of the people stayed the same and did not move. they still faught and argued with one another in a minuscule area. Lucille Hong and her extended family faught other civilians in downtown china to reserve a spot on the stone lodge.
