These are photos I took in one of our trips to Washington DC last June of 2012. When I saw her and read her posters, I was impressed. Such dedication and bravery she showed all these years.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
Rest in peace, Connie.

RIP Concepcion Picciotto
Peace activist Concepcion Picciotto (also known as Connie or Conchitta) died today, January 25, 2016 at a shelter for homeless women in Washington DC. Lafayette Park, a park across the White House, she held her peace vigil there for over three decades. It's considered the longest running political protest in the history of America, a 24-hour peace vigil since 1981.
