The Rachel Corrie Foundation continues the work and witness of Rachel, killed at the age of 23. She was in Palestine as part of the International Solidarity Movement, serving as a "human shield", protecting Palestinians and their homes.

The Eau Claire Unitarian Universalist church had a service in her memory this past October and recorded some of what was shared. I also spoke with Rachel's aunt, Cathy Pierce, who is part of the Eau Claire UU congregation, about Rachel.

The home of the Nasrallah family, which Rachel died protecting, was subsequently destroyed, but has been rebuilt by the Rebuilding Alliance.

Rachel's story has been shared with the world through the play, My Name Is Rachel Corrie, created from Rachel's own words and performed in London, New York, Seattle, and in Rachel's home town, Olympia, Washington.

You can related videos of Rachel's final moments, a 43-minute documentary, some excerpts from her play (continuation clips there), and Cindy Corrie's call to action.
