People People had been set up only a few weeks prior to this inaugural Edition of “Peace By Peace” in 1976. You can read about the background of the group being set up here.
This issue contains messages from Betty Williams, Mairead Corrigan and Ciaran McKeown as well as International reaction to the founding of Peace People and other interesting items. I’ve scanned and uploaded it in pdf format here
From the 1991 Local Elections a leaflet for Timmy Hammersley, Roger Kennedy, Sean McCarthy, William McInerney and Josephine Quinlan who were running for Fianna Fail in Cashel.
Timmy Hammersley and Sean McCarthy were elected.
Many thanks to the sender.
From September 1973 an issue of The “Fownes Street Journal” produced by the Women’s Liberation Movement. Quite an interesting read. I’ve scanned and uploaded it in pdf format here
From the 1957 General Election a leaflet from Vivion De Valera and Colm Gallagher running for Fianna Fáil in Dublin North Central. Both candidates were elected.
Many thanks to the sender.
From 1937 (The IRA was banned in 1936) a copy of Republican News that was just a single sheet of paper, probably illustrating the difficulty trying to print a full paper at the time.
AN interesting read and it is highly critical of Fianna Fail.
From a publication produced by The Dublin Spartacist Youth Group a reprint of a 1979 piece “Derry 1968: how the left failed” which I’ve uploaded in pdf format here
