Is it Blue/Black or White/Gold, now joining Cause

      Is it Gold and White or Black and Blue? Remember the dress debate, the dress that caused controversy because some people saw it as being black and blue and others saw it is white and gold. Well according to the people who originally took the picture said the dress was naturally black and blue. Now you may be asking yourselves 'than how did other people or I see it as white and gold?' It was discovered that the amount of light caused people's color perception to change; for instance some people's brain made it up as white and gold, while others as blue and black. Well it as this kind of attention that drew the salvation army to use this dress in a campaign against domestic violence.
       "Since the dress caused such a positive stir nationwide and garnered so much attention, the salvation army decided to capitalize on that by bringing awareness to domestic violence", Jaylen Christie, public relations coordinator for the salvation army in South Africa, told the Christian Post. They are bringing attention to domestic violence by including a young women with the gold and white version of the dress, with bruises on her body. "It warms my heart to know that we're getting such positive feedback from individuals that want to end domestic violence or individuals that may be in a situation that they're able to speak up". So far the campaign has received positive reviews from the public.
