My Name is Rachel Corrie - a fundraiser for Palestine
About
Rachel Corrie was a 23-year-old American peace activist from Olympia, Washington. She was crushed to death by an Israeli armored bulldozer on 16 March 2003 while undertaking nonviolent direct action in Gaza to protect the home of a Palestinian family from demolition.Taken from her own writings, Rachel's story was dramatised in this phenomenal play by Katharine Viner & Alan Rickman in 2005. Join us to hear her story read by actors Hannah Norris and Lucy Payne at Black Spark Cultural Centre in Northcote, raise money for humanitarian aid and learn about other ways you can take action for peace in Palestine.
