Turning Fifty.


Article at the Washington Post about the peace symbol turning fifty.

As the article notes, the symbols success is largely due to it's "simplicity and adaptability." To me, it's kind of an archaic symbol. It still evokes ideas like unity, compassion and goodwill, but in an old fashioned sense. It feels like a hippie ideal and less like a solution to any of our current geopolitical problems.
