Friday November 17, 2006 17:15 by Elinor - Cork Shell to Sea corkshelltosea at gmail dot com
The Ken Saro-Wiwa Memorial Seminar was held at UCC, Cork this year. This event also marked the launch of 'Niger Delta Awareness' by Philip Ikurusi who comes from a small island off the Delta region. Maura Harrington, who had driven straight to Cork from the Garda violence at Bellanaboy the previous day, received a standing ovation from the audience which she immediately conferred on all the people of Rossport, making it clear that there are no 'super heroes' in Erris but a community of courageous people. |
