Here is an excellent, hard to read, but important article that provides very specific context to this vigil. Please read it, especially if you are not sure what this Vigil / Day Of Mourning is all about. Thanks to Tumblr bloggers Wheeliewifee and Sunshine, Been Keeping Me Up For Days who posted and reflagged this.
