Photographer’s Note

This was taken in Los Angeles two days ago in a rally against killing of innocent people by US-Israel joint project in Lebonan.

I've seen this group of dancers whith their ghost-like outfit and very "dark" dance in all peace marches I've been to since the Iraq war started. They have a highly artistic way to protest against war and "US imperialism" (as they claim themselves).
Here is a bit taken from their website: corpusbutoh.org

--"Corpus Delicti:{noun}
The body of the offence; the essence of the crime.

It was a general rule not to convict
unless the corpus delicti can be
established, that is, until the
dead body has been found.

There is plenty of evidence of
the horrors and genocides that
the United States has inflicted upon
other nations over the last 50 years.

We want to embody that evidence
through our ghost-like presence
on the body of Los Angeles."--

Peace!
