Peace rises

On the way to class yesterday, I stopped a moment to take this photo of a group of anarchists frozen in a pose raising a peace flag, a la the staged Iwo Jima photo, under the flags on Flint Loop.

The message is less than clear, but it made you think. It did so in a way that for me, the many demos of the last few weeks did not. Their quiet stillness made me think. It also gave me hope that there remain a few people who are not afraid to speak out quietly at the most difficult time to wage peace.
