Centenary of the Belfast Pogrom 1920
21 July 2020

When the Partition of Ireland was first proposed in 1914 James Connolly said that such a scheme would mean “a carnival of reaction both North and South”. In the summer of 1920, as the British government unleashed the Black and Tans, and as it pushed forward legislation to partition the country, the carnival of reaction was seen in its full horror in the Six North-Eastern Counties that were to form the new state of ‘Northern Ireland’.

Éirí Amach na Cásca – The 1916 Easter Rising - BA DHOILIGH ról na Gaeilge agus an athbheochan chultúrtha le linn na tréimhse reábhlóidí in Éirinn a thuiscint gan cíoradh níos leithne a dhéanamh ar thionchar an choilíneachais ar phobal na tíre. Is beag saineolaí teanga, polaitíochta nó socheolaíochta nach mbeadh in aontas le tuairim Naom Chomsky gur ‘ceisteanna cumhachta i gcónaí iad ceisteanna teanga’. Tá an nasc seo i bhfad níos soiléire i gcomhthéacs an choilíneachais, nuair atá ansmacht an chultúir dhúchasaigh mar phríomhchloch ar phaidrín an ionraidh choilínigh. Ar an bhonn seo, ní tharlaíonn meath teanga ariamh i bpobail atá saibhir agus faoi phribhléid ach dóibh siúd atá díshealbhaithe agus díchumhachtaithe amháin. Free article
