The People's Priest | Future of Ireland | Sean Keane

Léargas: A Podcast by Gerry Adams

The People’s Priest:
Fr. Des Wilson died in November 2019. I first met him in 1968. His long life was dedicated to helping people. During the years of conflict, he stood with the Upper Springfield community against the aggression and violence of the British state forces. He gave comfort and solidarity to those in need and was hugely respected and loved.Have your say on the future of Ireland
Future of Ireland:
The Commission on the Future of Ireland was established by Sinn Féin in November 2021. Its remit is to undertake a grassroots consultation with the people of Ireland and internationally on the future of our island. For people to have their say on what the future might be.
Walking with my Mother:
Here is another offering from a book of poetry - Poems for Hard Times – I published a few years ago. This week I thought I would share this onewith you.
Seán Keane:
Regular readers will know that this column is a lover of music. My tastes are wide ranging and eclectic. But mostly I come back to folk music and invariably to Irish traditional music. And always when I’m in that mood it’s The Chieftains for me. Last week I purchased Chronicles: 60 Years Of The Chieftains on line from Claddagh Records.
