SIPTU - The Early Years Union

“Almost every hand was silhouetted out against the darkening sky, and a last long deafening cheer proclaimed the birth of the Irish Citizen Army.” ― Seán O'Casey (born this day, March 30, 1880)

Bring out the banners! 📸 1916 wrap going up on Liberty Hall. The wrap depicted images, including the Proclamation, prominent Irish Citizen Army and other activists during the 1916 Rising was erected on three sides of Liberty Hall in March 2016.

📢 The message on the streets of Dublin today was loud and clear the Government must live up to its commitment to the people of Ireland and Palestine by enacting the Occupied Territories Bill immediately. #FreePalestine 🇵🇸
