Dear Friends
There are commemorations planned through out the US. I will post what cities have committees as the come up. Sorcha, this is not for money for the IRA. In fact, the families involved are both IRA and INLA members sisters, brothers, mothers and fathers, who wish that their children's sacrifice be remembered and not colored by propaganda, and be a lasting light focused on human rights abuses, which is why family members and committee members ask that you become informed about hunger strikes for human rights as they happen in ANY nation. I will post, in a moment, information about the Irish and Turkish hunger strikes, so that you may right to Bertie Ahern and the Turkish governments, and express your concern. In a nut shell the Irish strike is about compasionate parol for republican prisioners to visit critically ill family members, and the Turkish strike concerns the human rights of Kurds.
All the best,
Larry
