This is a story about courage and determination as told by forty-three human rights activists who founded, organized and purchased boats to go to Gaza. On August 23, 2008, they made history by landing two small Greek fishing boats, the Free Gaza and the Liberty, in Gaza. They were the first internationals to land there in 41 years.
