The Mna100 Centenary Podcast will take an in-depth look at some of the women who helped shape Ireland’s history. Dr Sinead McCoole, an Irish historian with expertise in the history of Irish women from 1880 to the present day will be looking at the years 1912 - 1923, as Ireland continues this Decade of Centenaries.
Episode one will focus on the events of May of 1921 when 8 women were elected in Ireland, in parliament both north and south of a newly formed border.
As we try to get a sense of who these women were, what information can be found? Helping in the search we will speak to Librarians, Archivists, Curators, Historians, and Education & Outreach Officers, at Ireland’s National Cultural Institutions, who have gathered key documents, artifacts, and their personal belongings. What will they find and will they help us connect the past to the present?
