Drinking with Loyalists, Part 1. Ulster (and Coolock) says No
Manage episode 433903512 series 3465230
At their best, the Olympics represent all that is good about humanity. For Ireland the Olympics brought an outpouring of spontaneous joy and happiness, at least until the homecoming parade. But the hate and fear that is being weaponised across Ireland and Britain won’t be combated by two weeks in Paris.
On Free State, Dion and Joe discuss the far right pogroms and what needs to be done to stop them. While communities have stood up for the marginalised, the Coolock Says No leaders are drinking with loyalist paramilitaries on Sandy Row. And the powerful have used the trouble for their own end and as a dress rehearsal for what is to come.
