1-A-Day
This is my self-challenge to post one image to this gallery daily. The images I am sharing are a reflection on the many aspects of photography that I enjoy.
Red Dress Day
October 4, 2015
Red Dress Day
* I belong to the Red Dress Photography Project which was inspired by the work of a lady named Jaime Black, who started the REDress Project. https://www.facebook.com/REDressProject
Today people were encouraged to hang/wear red dresses to raise awareness of the missing, murdered indigenous women in Canada.
The one-day display of red dresses coincides with the National Day of Vigils to Remember Murdered and Missing Aboriginal Women.
Calls for a national inquiry on murdered and missing aboriginal women have been growing since the RCMP revealed last year that nearly 1,200 aboriginal women have been murdered or gone missing in Canada in the last 30 years.
