#InternationalWomensDay2022
I've a number of tributes to pay on this important day.
The first must obviously go to the women of #Ukraine
This picture demonstrates their suffering & their personal courage
I stand with them in #Solidarity

It's a strange start to this tribute, but today is the 21st anniversary of my Dad's death. His life and of his Mother, Mary Breheny, is couched in real courage through #MotherAndBabyHomes #MagdalenLaundries
#Justice is coming!
#InternationalWomensDay2022
I pay tribute to #BreedaMurphy from the #TuamMotherandBabyHomeAlliance
Her passion, compassion and determination against @cnalive @merrionstreet to deliver the stories & change of #Survivors #MotherAndBabyHomes & #Magdalene story is inspirational
#InternationalWomensDay2022
Where do I begin with @cmcgettrick?
So many balls in the air on the #Magdalene story in #Ireland, and so much courage. Impressive doesn't quite cut it.
#InternationalWomensDay2022
Bravo to @GalwayCityCouncil & #ColetteConnolly (#BreedaMurphy) for giving the freedom of the City to #PatriciaBurkeBrogan & #EnaMcEntee for their writing & actions to help women escape from #Galway's #MagdalenLaundry

There are many words to describe #MaryMerritt, survivor of #MotherAndBabyHomes, #IndustrialSchools, #Convents, #MagdalenLaundries
Controversial, challenging, fierce, determined, seeker of Justice; a spirit like no other!
#InternationalWomensDay2022
On a change of direction, my next tribute relates to #StephanieTrotter from @cogassafety
My goodness, her courage under political and commercial fire is impressive
She survives the onslaught, bringing #InconvenientTruths to the fore!
#InternationalWomensDay2022
Quiet courage and determination marks #AvrilSamuel; a tribute to the ongoing survival of loss

Can you imagine losing a child and facing @GOVUK indifference?
No need to imagine #NicoleGbangbola's voice is never silent for the loss of her sone, Zane.
Hear her voice:

#JudithMcJannet
@oferralle
If you've never been in the room with these three, then you are missing an experience. The plight of #Victims #Survivors will never be forgotten by them!
