She was killed on March 16, 2003, when she tried to stop an Israeli bulldozer in the Palestinian residential area of Rafah. The circumstances of Corrie's death are disputed and sparked controversy. It led to international media coverage, in part because she was an American, and in part because of the highly politicized nature of the conflict itself. http://www.goshen.edu/news/pressarchive/04-14-08-earthtones.html Singing music from almost every continent, the Goshen College choirs will explore the large palette of sounds available to the human voice, including from Finland, Sweden, South Africa, Latvia, India, Republic of Georgia, Ukraine, Puerto Rico, Appalachia and in the African- American tradition.
