Keir Starmer has said how the police will keep us safe from the 'far Right'. But, asks Steven Tucker, who will keep us safe from him? It's his kind's insane, open-border policy decisions that have put us all in danger.

Clondalkin Hunger Strike Meeting

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Sunday November 09, 2008 20:38author by éirígí PRO - éirígí Report this post to the editors

8pm Neilstown Community Centre

Hunger Strike Meeting in Neilstown Community Centre, Clondalkin

The recent release of Steve McQueen’s critically acclaimed movie ‘Hunger’ has led to a renewed interest in both the 1981 Hunger Strike and the broader prison struggle of the 1970’s and 1980’s. For many of those too young to remember that momentous period the movie has whetted an appetite to learn more about the events that led ten young men to die on Hunger Strike twenty-seven years ago.

This is the context within which éirígí has organised a series of 1981 Hunger Strike- themed public meetings which will take place during the month of November. The first of these meetings is taking place at 8pm in Neilstown Community Centre, Clondalkin on November 10th.

Both Tommy McKearney and Jake Jackson will speak at the meeting.

Tommy McKearney from Co Tyrone who took part in both the ‘blanket’ and ‘no-wash’ protest before joining the ‘first’ Hunger Strike in 1980. Tommy went for 53 days without food before that protest was ended on the basis of a deal which the British authorities quickly retracted.

Jake Jackson from Belfast who took part in both the ‘blanket’ and ‘no-wash’ protests. As a former cellmate and close friend of Bobby Sands Jake had a unique insight into not only the 1981 Hunger Strike but also the period before and following.

The meeting will be chaired by éirígí chairperson and representative for the Clondalkin and Lucan area Brian Leeson.

very encouraging to a see a well attended localised gathering (majority of those being community members). to some it might appear to be a "back to basics exercise" but if that is whats required to build a credible grassroots mass movement for republican objectives so be it. congratulations to all involved, in the words of malcolm x "tomorrow belongs to those who plan for it today" and what better way to learn than from those who inspire us by their actions from a generation before.
