"NORAID: Irish America & the IRA" Documentary Screening

NORAID: IRISH AMERICA AND THE IRA reveals a key chapter of Irish history which seemed destined to remain forever hidden. It is the story how Irish Americans, over a quarter century, defied opposition, indeed vilification by the British, Irish and American governments, to deliver vital political backing and publicity for the Irish Republican Army struggle and millions of dollars for prisoners' families.The documentary tells this story by mixing historic archival film with first hand interviews of NORAID members who were a part of this story and will be speaking live at the showing.

Photographer Kevin Noble will have his photography from this era on display throughout NY Irish Center.
