Meeting

Central Ohioans for Peace Welcomes Cindy and Craig Corrie to Columbus. Cindy and Craig will share some of the story of their family. Cindy and Craig Corrie are the parents of human rights activist and observer Rachel Corrie who on March 16, 2003, was killed by an Israeli military, Caterpillar D9R bulldozer in the Gaza Strip as she tried to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian family’s home. Motivated by their daughter’s work and example, the Corries have dedicated themselves to the pursuit of justice and peace in the Middle East and have made numerous visits to the region.

We will watch “Trouble the Water.” This film takes you inside Hurricane Katrina. The film opens the day before the storm makes landfall — just blocks away from the French Quarter but far from the New Orleans that most tourists knew. Kimberly Rivers Roberts, an aspiring rap artist, is turning her new video camera on herself and her Ninth Ward neighbors trapped in the city. “It’s going to be a day to remember,” Kim declares.
