- Synopsis
- Rasmea Odeh is a 70-year-old Chicago community organizer, feminist, and former political prisoner, prosecuted by the US government from 2013-2017 in an arduous legal battle. Officially an immigration case, her supporters claim that in reality, the government persecuted her to set an example for Muslim and Arab anti-militarization organizers, especially in the realm of Palestine organizing.
