Jesse Jackson



The Reverend Jesse Jackson in The Chapel in Trinity College Dublin, today, after he addressed the Historical Society. He then walked back to his hotel stopping to speak to people once or twice along the way.




He stopped at the bottom of Grafton Street to read what pavement artist Craig Wightman had written regarding life and homelessness. Craig is in trans
itional housing awaiting a permanent home.

Veteran Socialist, Trinidad de la Cuba



The Cuban people seem to remain very loyal to the revolution even if they now feel frustrated and disaffected. I met this veteran of '59 in Trinidad de la Cuba. A contemporary of Castro, Guevara & Cienfuegos, he now survives by selling cigarettes, paintings & political pamphlets from his front parlour. Pictures on the wall show him in earlier times as a delegate to an international socialist congress.

Connemara Again


I'd just run the Connemara half marathon with my brother, Shane back in March '09. We came back via Roundstone and stopped off in O'Dowd's for some well earned fish'n'chips.
