About "Walk In Their Shoes" protest in Monterey
Hundred of shoes of all sizes representing the hundreds of thousand of Iraqi civilians, and thousands of US soldiers killed the past 4 years of the war. The shoes bear the tags of the name, age, and the place of death. This peaceful protest is organized on Saturday, Mar 17, 2007 by the CodePink's local Monterey chapter, a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement.
