One Million Bones On The National Mall


I was walking across the National Mall the other day when I found myself dodging bones.  Bones everywhere!  I've seen many things in DC, but nothing like this.....


Seems they were part of the One Million Bones project who's mission is to raise awareness of genocides and crises occurring in Sudan, Burma, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Somalia.



One Million Bones was launched In 2010 and resulted in 1,000,000 bones being spread across Washington DC's National Mall in early June, 2013, in remembrance of genocide victims and survivors, and to raise awareness of the issue.






I got to walk through this!  I can't take credit for this shot.  It's from http://www.onemillionbones.org/ where you can find out more about this project.
Also, check out http://theartofrevolution.org/ for more info

Hashtag #onemillionbones on Twitter will lead to many more pics.
Piles of bones...........
