"The drafting of the text of the Berlin declaration was a case of backroom diplomacy, without any civil society participation.

As part of the demilitarisation program under the Good Friday Agreement, the British government have finally lived up to their commitment and pulled their war machine out of Crossmaglen. Damian White of Ogra Shinn Fein Armagh said, "I welcome the fact the war machine has finally been removed from Crossmaglen understanding that this has been an important site in the struggle, I would urge republicans not to forget that this is only the start of British disbandment in Ireland, and there is much more to be done.” read full story / add a comment

EcoSoc Presents... April 10th O’Flaherty Theatre, Nuig Galway. Addmision Free. Film Premiere and Speaking tour : Mumia Abu Jamal is an award-winning journalist who was charged on July 4th 1982 with the killing of a white police officer. He was convicted of the crime in a deeply flawed trial. The presiding judge held the record number of death row convictions, in the state. Many of these convictions were later overturned as blatant anti-black bias was found in many of his decisions. However the Mumia case was not overturned, the reopening of the case would have discredited the entire justice system. The evening’s events will include talks by a delegation of top-level African American activists. They are in Galway as part of a world tour aimed at raising awareness about the miscarriages of justice, which have placed political prisoners on death row in the USA. read full story / add a comment |
