Hoy se cumplen 50 años del Domingo Sangriento en Derry, en el que el ejército británico abrió fuego en contra de civiles, matando a 14 personas y avivando un conflicto violentísimo que duraría casi 30 años.
Aprovechando que mi tesis fue sobre el conflicto norirlandés, aquí un 🧵:

El 30 de enero de 1972, la Asociación por los Derechos Civiles de Irlanda del Norte convocó a una marcha para protestar por la política de encarcelamiento sin juicio que se había aprobado meses antes en el parlamento norirlandés. 
Después de algunos encuentros, los soldados salieron de las barricadas y comenzaron a disparar, hiriendo de bala a más de 30 personas. 13 de ellas murieron al instante y una más murió meses después debido a las heridas recibidas. Además, hubo gente atropellada y diversas golpizas

50 yrs ago! #BloodySunday50 when British occupation forces massacred Irish protesters demanding justice & freedom. The Irish have long been in solidarity w/ the Palestinian people because their stories are so similar: British settler colonial rule, denial of rights, & massacres.

...of internment of suspected Irish nationalists. British authorities had ordered the march banned, and sent troops to confront the demonstrators when it went ahead. The soldiers fired indiscriminately into the crowd of protesters, killing 13 and wounding 17
The killings brought worldwide attention to the crisis in Northern Ireland and sparked protests all across Ireland. In Dublin, the capital of independent Ireland, outraged Irish citizens lit the British embassy aflame on February 2. #BloodySunday50

IL Y A 50 ANS : LE BLOODY SUNDAY
- Dohmnach Fola -
C'était il y a 50 ans, et les répercussions en Irlande du Nord se font toujours sentir. À #Derry particulièrement où les "murals" restaurés régulièrement se font toujours le rappel de cet évènement dramatique.

C'est à Derry, le 30 janvier 1972 que fut organisée l'une des plus grandes manifestations pour la réunification de l'Irlande de l'histoire. Mais cette marche républicaine qui se voulait pacifique tourne au bain de sang face à l'armée d'occupation britannique.
Pour la première fois depuis des années, le bataillon de parachutistes qui siège à l'entrée du Bogside pénètre dans les rues de ce quartier populaire irlandais de Derry et fait un carton. Le résultat est un véritable massacre : 14 mort-es, 14 blessé-es.
Mezzo secolo dopo, quelle lacrime di sangue e dolore non si sono asciugate. Gerry Duddy, 64 anni, prova a trattenerle. Charlie Glenn, 68, proprio non ce la fa.

1. We need expand the definition of Irishness - one million people living on this island were not born here but call it home, says @IRLPatricia in a discussion chaired in #Derry today by @SusanMcKay15 @IrelandsFuture
2. We need to have an approach to dialogue which allows every voice to be heard. But those who say it's divisive to have the #unity debate need to be gently but firmly reminded that closing down this debate is attempt silence legitimate political aspirations, says @IRLPatricia
@IRLPatricia 3. Many people are engaging in this constitutional conversation because they take the possibility of a "new Ireland" very seriously indeed - it has transformative potential says @cjhumanrights
