Concepcion Piccioto, outside the White House, Washington D.C.

 

Concepcion has been protesting outside the White House since 1981, and her anti-nuclear weapons campaign has been called the longest continuous act of political protest in the United States. In 1988 George Joseph Tanber wrote this lovely pieceabout her vigil for Toledo magazine. Concepcion gave me a photocopy of it this week.
