Those who include themselves among what W.B. Yeats called “the indomitable Irishry” need neither great men nor a fifth-century saint to serve as models. Common people have always been the heroes of the Celtic nation, from James Connolly, who rose from extreme poverty to lead the 1916 Easter Rebellion, to Bernadette Devlin, the charismatic civil rights firebrand of the 1970s.
Fabulous story. Amazing woman. I love her testimony before the House Judiciary Committee.
Wonderful story about this amazing IRISH woman Jack and another part of history I didn't know about. You've given me a lot to learn. Thank you
