A sculpture in memory of Olympia activist Rachel Corrie will be dedicated Wednesday in the Activities Building at The Evergreen State College.

The Olympian reports ( http://bit.ly/16sYebN ) the bronze and steel representation of a dove on the tip of a pyramid is called "Reflecting on Peace and Justice."

Corrie was killed in 2003 in the Gaza Strip by an Israeli military bulldozer as she attempted to stop it from demolishing a Palestinian home.

I was looking into a local orchestra on the east coast - thinking that IF we moved, I might audition. I saw that on their fall schedule they were playing The Ballad of Trayvon Martin.

Nevermind ...

All they need is a flat pedestal with a pancake face on it next to a flattened PLO flag with bulldozer tracks on the grass.

Where’s a good bulldozer when you need one.

How can you have a three dimensional sculpture of a
TWO dimensional object?

Rachel looking a little flat lately,
could have sent her home in an envelope.

The hateful witch should've done more reflection on concepts of PEACE and JUSTICE.
