The Lake Street Church Peace and Justice Committee presents The Metal Shop Performance Lab's production of My Name is Rachel Corrie, taken from the writings of Rachel Corrie and edited by Alan Rickman & Katharine Viner.
​
This is a one-woman play edited from the journals and emails of Rachel Corrie, a 23-year old activist killed in 2003 while defending the homes and livelihoods of the Palestinian people in Gaza. The insightful, powerful writing she left behind reveals a compelling story of a young woman’s journey into activism and global consciousness.
​
Using Rachel’s words, My Name is Rachel Corrie invites the audience to know Rachel and gives them many opportunities to identify with her fears and uncertainty alongside her idealism, flaws, and unwavering conviction. Rachel’s eye-witness account exhibits the deep admiration and love she found for the Palestinian people, giving audience members a window into their resilience, dignity, and humanity.
The play is performed by Emiley Kiser with volunteer community readers and directed by Alex Mallory.
The 85-minute performance will be followed by a facilitated community dialogue. Freewill offerings will be accepted onsite to facilitate future programming.

Rev. Michael Woolf
God Isn't a Republican or a Democrat; God Is an Immigrant

If you want to understand who God is, then I think one of the foundational themes is the experience of migration. In election season, we sometime ask whether God is a Democrat or a Republican, but the truth is more obvious: God is an immigrant.
