I posted one picture of this earlier, basically everyone is putting up post-it notes with words of promise, love, hope, peace, and discouraging further destruction of their cities.
Below are some more pictures of this extraordinary invention. (All pictures were found on the BBC News website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-14548710 )
While being interviewed by BBC News, a psychologist named Geoff Beattie tried to explain what it was like watching people put up these walls. (the following quote was found on: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-14548710 )
' "I was watching people put up Post-it notes in Manchester, and what struck me was their body language. It was almost like the way people sign up to an anti-cruelty manifesto, there was a sense of 'I'm prepared to do this, come and join in'," he says. '
And that, is a very hopeful thought indeed.
