I looked up Women in Black because I was curious about what it was. Apparently it is an anti-war group of women that hold silent vigils for justice and peace (and apparently shop at Kohl’s) not only in DC but internationally, too. The movement started in Israel in 1988 and is now practiced across the world in response to the many different conflicts of our times. I’m guessing, because of her location near the White House, that this woman in particular was showing her opposition to the Iraq war. What do you think about the statement on her sign?

It is quite a thought provoking shot.
I think someone should tell her that the Kohl’s bag does diminish her message.
The first thing I saw after reading the sign was the bag.
I am sure that is not what she intended but it is what happened.
