Holding Israel Accountable: Remembering Rachel Corrie

Please join our brothers and sisters at the Rachel Corrie Foundation for Peace and Justice on the 19th year anniversary of the day Rachel Corrie was killed protesting the demolition of Palestinian housing in Gaza. Amnesty International recently published a report calling “Israel’s apartheid against Palestinians a cruel system of domination and a crime against humanity.” We would like to invite the community to attend a zoom webinar on “Holding Israel Accountable,” featuring voices and perspectives from the Palestinian Diaspora, solidarity groups, and current actions being taken in the United States and internationally. Co-hosted by the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project.
