To celebrate the holiday season - whatever and however you're celebrating - we're celebrating the life of Rachel Corrie, the 23 year-old American college student who was killed by Israeli Occupation Forces in 2003 while protecting a Palestinian home from being demolished.
Rachel Corrie was born an activist, a true champion of the underdog. I am moved by the earnestness of her actions, by her openness and compassion for not only Palestinians, but for all in the world facing injustice.
Rachel Corrie's story is both timeless - a student with a big heart intent on making a difference - and timely. The Israeli military that Rachel encountered 20 years ago has not changed. Nor has the narrative of the Israeli government. Her story is a crucial component of deconstructing the lies we have been told about Palestinians living in Gaza, the West Bank, and Jerusalem.
