Rachel: An
American Conscience
Yahya Barakat
From the
Washington Report on Middle East Affairs:
Yahya Barakat,
who teaches at Al-Quds University, told
The Washington Report that he began work
on the documentary the instant he learned
that Corrie had been crushed to death by
an Israeli-driven Caterpillar bulldozer.
This documentary
offers rare footage of Rachel talking to
a camera and describing Israeli human rights
violations against a Palestinian civilian
population.
The film
opens with grim images of dinasaur-like
Caterpillar bulldozers turning urban Rafah
into a garbage pile of destroyed buildings.
It continues with interviews of Rachel's
fellow International Solidarity Movement
volunteers, and concludes with comments
from her parents.
