Arlington West

In my daily life it is very easy not noticing that we are a country waging war. Yesterday I saw Arlington West, an on-going exhibition about the human cost of war.

Each red cross represents 10 dead American soldiers who died in Iraq or Afganistan. Each white cross represents one American soldier. Iraqis are represented by a long, long, long list of names not shown here. Luckily I am too young to really feel the sadness of this place.
