A Vigil for Rachel Corrie Will Be Held in San Francisco Today
Yesterday an Israeli soldier driving a bulldozer ran over and killed peace activist Rachel Corrie in Gaza. At the time Corrie – in the non-violent spirit of Martin Luther King and Gandhi – was using peaceful means to try to prevent the bulldozer from demolishing a Palestinian physician's home.

A Vigil for Rachel Corrie Will Be Held in San Francisco Today
When: Monday, March 17 from 5:00 - 6:00 pm

For Press
The vigil has been organized in less than 24 hours but a diverse spontaneous turnout is expected.
A number of spokespeople will be available to comment.

The close friend who drove her to SFO for her flight to the Middle East will also be available.
