On International Womens Day a local "Women In Black" group held a silent peace vigil on the steps of St Lukes Church, high above the rush hour traffic.
Women In Black Vigil, St Lukes Church Liverpool 8 March 2007
"Women in Black (WiB) is a world-wide network of women committed to peace with justice and actively opposed to injustice, war, militarism and other forms of violence.
We are not an organisation, but a means of mobilisation and a formula for action. Women in Black actions are generally women only, and often take the form of women wearing black, standing in a public place in silent, non-violent vigils at regular times and intervals, carrying placards and handing out leaflets."
