Irish studies folks/ readers of Irish literature: Emma Donoghue's Haven has been once of my best teaching experiences ever. Can't believe how much my 21st century students loved 7th century monks heading to Skellig Michael!

These words from President Catherine Connolly deserve a place in Irish 🇮🇪 history: ‘🇮🇪 will never accept normalisation of genocide’ ‘History of colonisation & manmade famine’ ‘A lived understanding’ ‘Of dispossession, hunger & war’ ‘Gives 🇮🇪 a mandate to lead’ Immense 🇮🇪 🤝 🇵🇸

I want u to hear these 2 doctors from Australia sending their last words, fully aware they could be killed any second. What they’re describing is horror that defies belief. 70% of their patients are kids…
