100-Plus Women Strip to Protest War Plans
More than 100 women gathered on a chilly hillside near Occidental to bare all in their fight for peace.
The women met Sunday at Ocean Song, a nonprofit learning center, to doff their clothes and spell out the words “TRUTH,” “COMPASSION” and “PASSION.”
It was one of the largest U.S. gatherings of women forming words in the nude to generate opposition to war.
The first demonstration drew more than 40 women to spell out “PEACE” in a Marin County field in November. Since then, more than 40 such demonstrations have been held in the U.S. and abroad.
