A famous slogan of the Meiji Restoration, an exciting time in Japan's history when Japanese rallied around Emperor Meiji to create a strong, modern nation free of the influence of Western nations. A famous slogan studied by all Japanese (it even appears in James Clavell's novels about Japan), the slogan in Japanese is "sonno joi" (sohn-NOH JOH-ee). The silhouette of Admiral Perry's black ships, which are seen in the background. Very esoteric and funky.
