Protests, hunger strikes and resistance

Description

This post is also available in: Spanish

Armagh Prison was the only women’s prison in Northern Ireland during the conflict. There, republican women prisoners took part in the dirty protests to demand the restoration of political status, which had been withdrawn by the British government in 1976, and three of them joined the hunger strike of 1980. What held these young women together was solidarity and a wit that must have baffled the jailers. John Lennon is dead is the ironic title Síle Darragh chose for her account of protest and resistance. Her account from inside the prison, full of humour and feeling, offers a unique description of the diverse experiences of the women of Armagh.
