…shake of the balaclava to Colm, Scott and Augusto…<\/em><\/p>\n

A<\/strong><\/p>\n

Originally broadcast in 2008, and winner of a Walkley Award for \u2018Radio Feature, Documentary or Broadcast Special\u2019, I only just listened to Colm McNaughton’s Awakening from History<\/a>. It’s a truly extraordinary piece.<\/p>\n

Colm McNaughton is a thirty-something Irish Australian, who spent some of his childhood in a Catholic family in Northern Ireland. He returns at the height of the highly charged ‘marching season’ to find out how realistic the peace and reconciliation movement is. He meets and records some heavy characters from both sides of the sectarian divide and confronts the way violence brought trauma into his own life. A tough story which has room for just enough optimism in the midst of the fatalism that still infects the ‘Irish Question’.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Letter from the RNC 8 – January 2010<\/a>
\nJanuary 26, 2010<\/p>\n

Dear friends, families and supporters,<\/p>\n

The last time that we wrote, we were only weeks beyond the 2008 RNC, and still figuring out how to navigate our case with a sense of collectivity and integrity. Now, more than a year after the fact, we find ourselves in a sort of limbo. Day to day, we don\u2019t feel the intensity of repression that we did in the weeks surrounding the RNC, yet the trial looms somewhere in the distance and we\u2019re not really free to move on. We return to court on February 2nd, and may come out of the hearing with a trial date certain. While it\u2019s hard to remain upbeat about the prospect, we hope to make the final push towards trial energizing for ourselves and our supporters alike, and we feel certain that a strong show of court solidarity will make a huge difference in the outcome of our case…<\/p>\n
