    An Okinawan community member initiates a race during the annual Henoko Hari Tournament at Matsuda-No-Hama, Nago, Okinawa, Japan, Aug. 17, 2025. The tournament, featuring teams racing in dragon boats, or “sabani,” is a traditional Okinawan event that dates back to the 16th century as a performance for the god of the sea to ask that the ocean provide an abundant harvest of seafood and for the safety of fishermen.
