Hats off to Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson for not shying away from the toxic Legacy Act in the second series of #BlueLights. They handled the emotion filled topic sensitively whilst highlighting the huge human cost of lack of truth, acknowledgment and justice. 1/2
In 2020,my granny died before I got to record her stories and life.That year,I came up with the idea of a Traveller oral history archive project. In 2021,with guidance from Rosa Meehan and supports from @NMIreland ,the project became what it is today. Enjoy our elder's words😊

It is a pleasure to announce that ‘Silent Testimony’, my exhibition which reveals the stories of 18 people connected by their individual experiences of loss through the Troubles in Northern Ireland, will be on show at the National Portrait Gallery London, 22 April ’24 to Feb ’25.
With today being the actual anniversary of the signing of the Good Friday Agreement #OnThisDay in 1998, we are reflecting on Seamus Heaney’s cultural influence during the Troubles, particularly as a director of the Field Day Theatre Company, which was founded in Derry in 1980.
💚
Before leaving… good to call by Belfast City Hall for unveiling of 2 statues of women - both too often defined by their connection to the men in their lives - Mary Ann McCracken of United Irishwomen & Winifred Carney of Irish Citizen Army - finally getting their due recognition.
👏 @Seanofthesouth 👏
Wisdom from the ages! Join Ernest Strathdee in a captivating interview with Mrs. Harmon of Ballymacarrett. She was born in 1880 and is reflecting on a life that spans a century: ow.ly/K3Iw50QyICO Interview with Ballymacarrett Pensioner (1962) Courtesy of UTV © ITV
The Pontins story made headlines yesterday. But as Chris McDonagh made clear, this is the reality for Irish Traveller people every day; “so used to hate & prejudice that the Pontins blacklist did not come as a surprise.” Pls follow @GypsyTravellers & support their important work.
We are proud to have brought this case to light after supporting the families that were affected. We welcome the @EHRC's judgement but we need to see a wider commitment to kicking out racism across the hospitality sector. #StopTravellerHate theguardian.com/society/2024/f…

“This is the most important step since the Good Friday Agreement” @freestateirl latest podcasts ‘Ulster Says YES’ Pt1-2 are a seriously good investment of your time! 👏 👏

Tenements in the north inner city once housed 100s of families. I recorded many stories with elderly people in those tenement rooms. All our archives along with 100s of tenement artefacts are in storage. Still trying to get funding for a museum in the north inner city.
This Sunday evening at 7pm please join us in remembering human rights solicitor Pat Finucane on the 35th anniversary of his murder
The South African team at the #ICJ was excellent today, incl our @DoughtyStIntl colleagues Prof John Dugard SC & Max du Plessis SC, & the brilliant Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh. Her submissions on “the terrible new acronym” WCNSF (wounded child, no surviving family) are a gutpunch. See:

In light of the Minceiri Archive going live yesterday, I'm sharing the article I wrote back in 2021. The article is about the importance of our elders and securing their stories while we can. I know she would be so proud seeing the archive in @NMIreland irishtimes.com/life-and-style…

A nice little piece of Irish history donated to @MuseumFreeDerry, the actual tricolour waved by the Birmingham Six on their release from prison in March 1991. Donated by Maurice Mulvihill, who gave them the flag that day.
