AP. 17 March 2003. Dozens Arrested in D.C. Anti-War Protest.

WASHINGTON -- Dozens of anti-war protesters were arrested Monday outside
the Capitol in the continuation of what promises to be a week of
demonstrations against a war in Iraq.

Holding signs and singing "we shall overcome," more than a hundred
people peacefully marched from a church in southeast Washington to
Capitol Hill.

Arrested for crossing police lines were 54 people, among them relatives
of people killed in the Sept. 11 attacks, said Capitol Police
spokeswoman Jessica Gissubel.

The protesters are planning other nonviolent acts of civil disobedience
this week to make their views known to lawmakers.

Nadine Block, whose shopping cart contained a large puppet of a woman
with a sign reading "Another mother for peace," criticized members of
Congress who had not voiced opposition to war.

"They need to stand up and have backbone," she said.
