RESCHEDULED – NEW LOCATION “Rachel” the film w/ panel with Corries

Posted on March 13, 2026

Due to weather this event on March 13 has been rescheduled. The same organizers are moving the event to happen on March 16 at Cherry Street Village, 720 – 25th Ave, Seattle.

Join the Palestine Narrates film series for a screening and discussion of Rachel (2009) to mark Rachel Corrie’s 23rd yarzheit – the anniversary of her death. The investigative documentary, made 6 years after Rachel’s killing by an Israeli armored bulldozer, shows the life, activism, and legacy of a young international solidarity activist from Olympia.

After the movie, Rachel’s parents, Craig and Cindy Corrie, and representatives of the International Solidarity Movement, a Palestinian-led non-violent resistance movement which guided Rachel’s activism in Gaza, will offer their thoughts and answer audience questions. As always, the Nablus Collection will bring Nabulsi olive oil, soap, za’atar and other items.

This film will bring up themes of international solidarity, the double meanings of witness/shaheed/martyr, and the continuities in Gaza from 2009 to today. We hope to see you and your beloveds there.

Palestine Narrates is a project of JVP Seattle.

This event is free and open to the public.

Rachel Corrie 21 years: They Are Us and We Are Them

Posted on March 11, 2024

Saturday, March 16th, is the 21st anniversary of Rachel Corrie’s stand in Gaza to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian home. Please join us at this community gathering to learn about and remember Rachel, to carry on the critical work that she inspired, and to strengthen our individual and organizational connections for social justice.

We’ll view a short film about Rachel, followed by Q&A with her parents; have social time for getting to know one another and each other’s work; engage in simple actions that address the current situation in Gaza; and share poetry that centers Palestine. Is there a poet in you? Would your organization like to be represented at this event? Contact us at [email protected].

This year, March 16th falls during Ramadan. Light snacks will be provided that we hope our fasting guests will take with them to enjoy after sundown.
