"We should be inspired by people... who show that human beings can be kind, brave, generous, beautiful, strong-even in the most difficult circumstances." -- Rachel Corrie
Rachel Corrie was a 23-year-old American peace activist from Olympia, Washington, who was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer on 16 March 2003, while undertaking nonviolent direct action to protect the home of a Palestinian family from demolition.
Norther Truth Seeker writes about her here:
Better Late Than Never: Remembering Rachel Corrie - MURDERED 16 Years Ago Standing Up Against Israeli Tyranny!
I made the same mistake NTS made by missing the anniversary because of all the distracting nasty stuff going on these days. We should never forget the heroism of this young lady.
