Rachel Corrie (1979-2003)

Nasser presents a commemoration of Rachel Corrie, an American nonviolence activist, diarist, and member of the pro-Palestinian International Solidarity Movement (ISM). Rachel was killed by an Israeli armoured bulldozer on March 16, 2003, at the age of 23, during the height of the Second Intifada

Nasser shares excerpts from Rachel's writings and audio recordings, where she spoke about nonviolent activism, human rights, and her advocacy for the Palestinian people under occupation. These reflections centred around her personal experiences and the impact of her time in Rafah, Gaza.

'I'd Rather Be Dancing (Rachel Corrie's Song)' performed Jim Page. 

The lyrics of this song are based on letters Rachel Corrie wrote to her parents before she was tragically killed. Rachel was attempting to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian doctor's home when the incident occurred.
