A young Iraqi woman in a hospital in Haweejah describes the circumstances that led to a devastating car accident and her paralysis. This interview is conducted by the Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq (OWFI) a pioneering national women's organization dedicated to rebuilding Iraq on the basis of secular democracy and human rights for all. Iraqis and U.S. military veterans are coming together to hold the U.S. government accountable for the lasting effects of war and to demand the right to heal.
