Dr Theresa O'Keefe's book Feminist Identity Development and Activism in Revolutionary Movements will be launched at 8 pm in Dublin on the evening of the 27th March, 2014.
The book documents how and why women became active in the armed Irish republican movement including
an examination of their roles within the IRA. Based on personal
interviews, it explores the ways in which republican activism fostered
feminism in many women and how this newfound 'republican feminism' was
positioned relative to the broader women's movement in the north of
Ireland.
The book will
be launched in Dublin by Brid Connolly of the Department of Adult and
Community Education and is supported by the Department of Sociology.
DJ Bambina will be on the decks.
Update: Venue the Grand Social, 35 Lower Liffey St., Dublin 1.
