Honoring Women\u2019s History through feminist solidarity w\/ Palestine:  A multimedia educational evening

This multimedia educational event will center feminist solidarity with Palestine in honor of women’s history month. Performances by Sana Wazwaz, Andrea Shaker, and Sharon Mansur will be integrated throughout the evening. The community reading of My Name is Rachel Corrie documents the life of Rachel Corrie. On March 16, 2003, Rachel Corrie, a twenty-three-year-old American, was crushed to death by an Israeli Army bulldozer in Gaza as she was trying to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian home. MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE is a one-woman play composed from Rachel’s own journals, letters and emails—creating a portrait of a messy, articulate, Salvador Dali–loving chain-smoker (with a passion for the music of Pat Benatar), who left her home and school in Olympia, Washington, to work as an activist in the heart of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In the three sold-out London runs since its Royal Court premiere, the piece has been surrounded by both controversy and impassioned proponents, and it has raised an unprecedented call to support political work and the difficult discourse it creates.
