Hi here is a link to a documentary I
made at the Arms Around Moore Street protest on April 21st. Has the eviction of Irish history begun? If you compare this to how America remembers it's history with The Alamo, Holland with the Ann Frank Museum and Belfast with the Titanic Museum is Irish history being celebrated in a similar fashion? This video features interviews and speeches
from 1916 relatives of James Connolly, Thomas MacDonagh, John O’Connor and
others, it has a recreation of a James Larkin speech performed 100 years ago at
this event, there is a rousing rendition of the national anthem performed by
Diarmuid Breatnach followed by a montage of gravestones from Arbour Hill and
Glasnevin cemetery where the 1916 leaders are buried with quotes. Every Irish
kid studied about this in school as these actions lead to the birth of the
Irish state. How should this be
remembered? The freedoms we have today were obtained by their actions. Do you think it should be knocked down?
