“Eyes Wide Open” is the name of the American Friends Service Committee’s widely-acclaimed exhibition on the human cost of the Iraq War, which features a pair of boots honoring each U.S. military casualty and a field of shoes to memorialize the Iraqis killed in the conflict. In April 2007, Antioch College played host to the Ohio portion of the larger exhibit. Yellow Springs residents Shirley Mullins, Tony Dallas, James Felder, and Bruce Heckman each took part in a closing ceremony which is the focus of Gartner’s video. Original time: 12 min., 32 sec.
