Launched by Fr. Peter McVerry in Connolly Books, Temple Bar on Saturday last, I believe every copy sold out on the day. Represented there were the Irish Trade Union Movement, Fórsa, Unite, CWU, Mandate, and the Belfast and Dublin and Galway Trades Councils. Other speakers were Eoin Ronayne, Deputy General Secretary of Fórsa, Mike Quille of Culture Matters and the editor of the Anthology, Jenny Farrell, Department of Languages & Humanities, Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology. The Anthology includes a foreword by Brian Campfield, General Secretary of the Northern Ireland Public Service Alliance, 2010-2015 and President of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, 2015-2017. The video was loaded by Eoin Mc Donnell.
