4.5 out of 5 stars from 43 ratings
  • Ease of reference

    The speakers name in visible but you have to open each one to find subject. This should be reversed unless the speaker is the star and the subject incidental. Otherwise, enjoyable.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

History of LGBT Activism in Ireland.
Q: How do we continue having that resilience to resist against that backlash?
By confronting aggression directly and remaining visible and loud about our identity and rights, rather than retreating or being calm in the face of bullying.
James M Dillon. Episode 3 of Recording the Revolution - The Harlan Strauss Tapes.
Q: Looking at the development of political parties here in Ireland over the years, has Fine Gael developed an ideology vis-a-vis Fianna Fáil?
Dillon indicates that ideologically there were no substantial differences, but historically political dynamics differed markedly.
James M Dillon. Episode 3 of Recording the Revolution - The Harlan Strauss Tapes.
Q: Was violence necessary in 1916?
Dillon argues violence was not needed since self-government had already been secured through the Home Rule Act of 1914 with over 100,000 Irishmen fighting for Britain.
James M Dillon. Episode 3 of Recording the Revolution - The Harlan Strauss Tapes.
Q: Do you feel that 1916 and its aftermath was a real revolution for Ireland?

Maire Comerford. Episode 4 of Recording the Revolution - The Harlan Strauss Tapes.
