Keep Fighting for Her Vision – March 16, 2010
Seven years ago today, 23 year-old Rachel Corrie of Olympia, Washington was crushed to death by a Caterpillar D-9R bulldozer driven by an Israeli soldier.
Rachel was part of an International Solidarity Movement group trying to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian pharmacist’s home in Rafah, Gaza.
Seven years later, Rachel’s memory is still vibrant and her family is still fighting for answers.
Rachel’s parents and sister are currently in Israel participating in a civil case against the state of Israel for intentional and unlawful killing and gross negligence in Rachel’s death. – Read more at End the Occupation…
