Mother’s Day 24 Hour Vigil at the White House

CODEPINK held a herstoric 24-hour event outside the White House on Mother's Day weekend. CODEPINK women (grandmas, mothers, and daughters!) came from around the country to participate in the event. Patch Adams joined us in a fantastic pink outfit. We held teach-ins outdoors on the grass and stayed up late into the night strategizing and bonding. On Sunday the sky held us through our final cheer and demonstration at the fence of the White House, before bursting into a downpour of rain as if to be crying with us.
