More from National Cathedral

This comes from the clerk of the board of AFSC:

One woman told me she had come from Anchorage to DC and found the exhibit the only comforting experience she had had before and after the election. She is completely alone in her views, she said, so it meant everything to know she wasn't alone here. She then broke into tears, and we stood with our arms around ech other, amid the boots, for a couple of minutes. That must happen over and over again, as the exhibit travels.
