Kilmainham Gaol

Kilmainham Gaol is one of the largest unoccupied gaols in Europe, covering some of the most heroic and tragic events in Ireland’s emergence as a modern nation from the 1780s to the 1920s. Attractions include a major exhibition detailing the political and penal history of the prison and its restoration. Located approximately two miles outside of Dublin city centre, it was built as a county gaol to…

This week 175 years ago, back in 1848, the Irish flag was first unveiled and hoisted on the Mall in Waterford, Ireland.

Created by Thomas Francis Meagher a skilled orator and statesman who later went on to become the first acting governor of Montana.

Often represented as green, white and gold the Irish flag is in fact green, white and orange - in Meagher's own words: "The white in the centre signifies a lasting truce between the 'Orange' and the 'Green', and I trust that beneath its folds the hands of the Irish Protestant and the Irish Catholic may be clasped in generous and heroic brotherhood."

The 7th of March 2023 marks 175 years since the Irish flag was first flown.

April 24, 2023: Rep Zooey Zephyr, Montana State Democratic Representative who just happens to be a Transgender Woman has been Forbidden from Participating in Debates by republican-confederate maga loyalist for 3 Days in a row

This is not simply R-CML talking over Her or ignoring Her

The R-CML Voted for a 3rd Time to Continue Subjecting Zephyr to a Gag Order, Denying Her the chance To Speak.

But

This time Her Supporters were there and They Started Chanting “Let Her Speak!” from the Gallery.

It's important to note Her Supporters Who Were There, Were the PEOPLE of Montana who just Elected Her to Represent Them, Not Only in D.C., but also In Montana.

The republican-confederate maga loyalist Led House Denied PEOPLE OF MONTANA THEIR VOICE!!!

One CBS reporter wrote the PEOPLE'S Voices Were "Forcing legislative leaders [R-CML] to pause proceedings and clear the room."

But

Were the PEOPLE the cause, or was it a Group of FASCIST Silencing the Voices of PEOPLE Who Disagree With Them?

The PEOPLE Came to the House Peacefully, to Hear Their Representative Speak on Matters Important to Them.

The Democratic Way, Would've Been to Hear the Voice of the PEOPLE, Not to Send Armed Law Enforcement to Force The PEOPLE Out and Silence Their Voices

But

The R-CML Did Send Armed Law Enforcement To the Gallery Above the House Floor to Force Out PEOPLE Standing and Chanting "LET HER SPEAK"

Seven, 7 PEOPLE Who Disagreed With the R-CML were Arrested for Criminal Trespass, Criminal Trespass For Chanting.

Sheriff Leo C. Dutton said. The PEOPLE Arrested were going to be booked and released.

Before the House Session began there was a Peaceful Rally to Show Support for Rep Zooey Zephyr

The Capital Statue behind Her Supporter is Interesting to me, because it's depicting Union Brigadier General Thomas Francis Meagher, an Irish Immigrant who was a Famous Revolutionary in Ireland and a Loyal United States Citizen During The Civil War.

January 1847: Meagher, John Mitchel, William Smith O'Brien, and Thomas Devin Reilly formed The Irish Confederation.

The Irish Confederation was for a National Parliament with Full Legislative and Executive Powers. The Founding was based on Principles of Freedom, Tolerance and Truth

Their goal was Independence for the Irish Nation from Britain and they held to any means to achieve that which were consistent with Honor, Morality and Reason.

July 1848: After a failed Rebellion that end The Irish Confederation Meagher Escaped, Came to the U.S. and Became a U.S. Citizen

His Reason Given for Loyalty to the United States During the Civil War...

"It is not only our duty to America, but also to Ireland. We Could Not Hope to Succeed in our effort To Make Ireland a Republic Without the Moral and Material Support of the Liberty-Loving Citizens Of These United States."

Meagher had supported the South, but disagreed over the issue of slavery.

The republican-confederate maga loyalist seem to have Nothing I Common With Thomas Francis Meagher

Thomas Francis Meagher - Wikipedia

Hey here is the Wikipedia article to the guy I mentioned who was partly my inspiration for the character I just posted.

Cork Lifelong Learning Festival | Mayfield Library

The Cork Lifelong Learning Festival was back with a bang this year with over 300 amazing events with approximately one third of these being hosted by your local library service!

Today we take a brief look at a number of the events organised by Mayfield library for this years festival.

“Rebels, Writers & Merchants” was a heritage walk conducted from Mayfield Library by Brendan Goggin for the Lifelong Learning Festival on Saturday, April 1st. Brendan led 50 local history aficionados along a trail encompassing Ashburton, Gardiner’s Hill, Ardnalaoi and finishing up at the Montenotte Hotel. Along the way listeners were enthralled by the exploits of local Republicans a hundred years ago, the life and times of Daniel Corkery and the pioneering ideas of John Holland on submarine engineering.

In the modern Ardnalaoi housing estate they saw the incorporated high walls of what was once the estate of the Quaker merchant family, the Carrolls. The walk finished up at the Montenotte Hotel which very generously provided tea and pastries to assist in continuing historical discussion and aid the recovery of tired legs. It was here Thomas Francis Meagher, Waterford, would visit the residence of his young Murphy friends (the distilling family) and, replete with revolutionary ideas from Paris 1848, outline his design for the tricolour that eventually became our national flag.

The Mayfield Lifelong Learning Expo returned this year and was held at the Mayfield Sports Complex on Wednesday, March 29th. The event was officially opened by Lord Mayor Deirdre Forde, who wished all the day’s participants continued success. EXPO 2023 showcased the activities run by the Mayfield Learning Neighbourhood and a whole host of social, community, educational and service providers in the area. All came together on the day to organise and promote learning and lifelong participation in learning. Mayfield Library’s stand was tended in rotation by branch staff and experienced a high level of engagement with local schools, local organisations and the general public.

Staff were kept busy throughout the day explaining library services and how they can be accessed. Combining on-the-spot tutoring and support literature, the public learned about downloadable book borrowing (BorrowBox), digital magazine access (Libby), languages and hobbies (Universal Class) as well as the more traditional library materials and activities available within the branch. Particularly fascinating to some was learning that Ireland’s public libraries are now linked up and taking membership with one allows use of all.

Flag of Ireland

Aspect Ratio 1:2

The flag of Ireland was adopted in 1922. The colors of green and orange had historically been rivaling colors associated with Irish revolution. Green had been the color of the United Irishmen organization, founded after the French revolution in the 1790's. A rival organization, the Orange Order was founded around the same time, exclusively for Protestants. During the 19th century, younger Irish nationalists sought to establish a peace between the two traditions and establish a self-governing Ireland. The colors, combined with white for peace, were joined in cockades during 1830, which in turn inspired the Irish flag, created in 1848. This flag was created by a group of French women who sympathized with the Irish cause, hence it's similarities to the French tricolor. The flag was presented as a gift to Irish revolutionary Thomas Francis Meagher of the Young Ireland movement. During the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) the flag was adopted by the Irish Republic. The resulting Irish Free State continued it's use. The design of the flag is similar to that of the flag of the Ivory Coast, though the color sequence is reversed and the proportions are different.

“Prang’s Card-Portraits of Prominent Characters, Men of the Times”

Louis Prang (1824-1909), the successful Boston lithographer and publisher, founded L. Prang & Co. in 1860. Over the years, Prang’s publications ranged from advertising cards to illustrated books to merchant scrip to maps to chromolithographic reproductions of famous art works to greeting cards. During and after the Civil War, he also published a collection of Civil War battle scenes, portraits of politicians and military men, and patriotic pieces like the “Family Record American Allegiance.”

Prang’s lithographs were aimed at a popular audience, and in that spirit, he published “Prang’s Card-Portraits of Prominent Characters, Men of the Times.” This series of cartes-de-visit-sized lithographs was advertised as “truly a publication for the people, comprising as it does … over one hundred portraits of noted persons, and daily increasing in number.” The cards sold for 10 cents apiece. They were intended to be placed in family albums side by side with photographs of family members. Among the prominent men of Prang’s time are a number who are less well known in the 21st century. 

Twenty-four-year-old Col. Elmer E. Ellsworth of New York was the organizer of the 11th New York Volunteer Infantry, a 1,100-man unit made up of New York City firemen, nicknamed the Fire Zouaves. He had read law with Abraham Lincoln in Springfield and was a close friend of Lincoln and his family. When Ellsworth became the first Union officer killed in the Civil War, he was hailed as a hero in the North and was added to Prang’s lithographs of “noted persons.”

Irish-born Michael Corcoran, an original member of the newly founded Fenian Brotherhood in America, was instrumental in rallying Irish immigrants to the Union cause. He led the 69th New York Infantry Regiment in defense of Washington, D.C., and at the First Battle of Bull Run, where he was taken prisoner. Upon his release in August 1862, he was promoted to Brigadier General and raised and commanded the Corcoran Legion. While serving once again in the Washington defenses in December 1863, he was thrown from his horse and died, age 36. Idolized by his Irish-American troops, Corcoran figured in many Civil War Irish Union ballads.

Thomas Francis Meagher was another Irish nationalist crucial to recruiting Irish-Americans to the Union cause. Meagher had been convicted of sedition in Ireland for his role in the Rebellion of 1848 and transported to Tasmania. He escaped to the United States in 1852. When the Civil War began, he enlisted in the Union Army and recruited a full company to be attached to the 69th New York Infantry Regiment. After the First Battle of Bull Run, he returned to New York and formed the Irish Brigade, which he commanded with the rank of Brigadier General until May 1863. He left the army permanently in May 1865. He was appointed Acting Governor of Montana Territory, where he died in 1867.

Kit (Christopher Houston) Carson—mountain man, wilderness guide, Indian agent, and U.S. Army officer—was already a frontier legend and hero of dime novels when Prang published this portrait in the “Men of the Times” series. He had served as guide with John C. Frémont’s western expedition and participated in the Bear Flag Revolt in California at the beginning of the Mexican War. During the Civil War, Carson fought for the Union, leading a regiment of mostly Hispanic volunteers from New Mexico at the Battle of Valverde in 1862. During 1863-64 Carson led a brutal campaign against the Navajo, Mescalero Apache, Kiowa, and Comanche. In 1865 Carson was breveted a Brigadier General and briefly took command of Fort Garland, Colorado, before retiring from the army. He died in Taos, New Mexico, in 1868.

Andrew Hull Foote’s long career in the United States Navy began in 1822. From 1849 to 1851, Foote commanded the USS Perry, which cruised the coast of Africa to suppress the slave trade there. The experience made Foote an abolitionist, and he spoke frequently at abolitionist meetings. In 1854, he published Africa and the American Flag, which described African geography and cultures, American colonies in Africa, and the evils of the slave trade. During the Civil War, he commanded the Western Gunboat Flotilla, leading the gunboats in the Battle of Fort Henry. He was one of the first naval officers to receive the newly created rank of Rear-Admiral. He died unexpectedly in 1863 on his way to take command of the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron.

Senator James Murray Mason of Virginia was a staunch defender of southern interests, including slavery. On January 4, 1850, he introduced the Fugitive Slave Act to strengthen existing law regarding runaway slaves. The measure raised vehement opposition from antislavery northerners. In March 1861, before shots were fired at Fort Sumter, Mason withdrew from the Senate to join the Confederacy. Then on November 8, 1861, the U.S. government arrested Mason and former senator John Slidell who were sailing to Europe on the RMS Trent as diplomatic commissioners for the Confederacy. The Trent Affair resulted in a diplomatic crisis with Britain. Mason and Sidell were released and allowed to sail in early 1862. Mason served as Confederate representative in England until the end of the war. He then lived in Canada until 1868 before returning to Virginia, where he died in 1871.

John Sidell, who was detained with Mason during the Trent Affair, was a native of New York who moved to New Orleans where he practiced law. He soon became a vocal champion of southern rights and served in the Louisiana House of Representatives before being elected to Congress in 1842. He was elected to the Senate in 1852. At the 1860 Democratic convention, he worked with southern Fire-Eaters to prevent the nomination of Stephen Douglas and supported the southern Democratic candidate John Breckenridge during the election campaign. He resigned from the Senate when Louisiana seceded in 1861 and was given a diplomatic appointment to represent the Confederacy in France. After his release following the Trent Affair, he proceeded to Paris where he failed to convince the French government to recognize the Confederacy. He remained in Paris after the Civil War and died in 1871.

Louis T. Wigfall immigrated to Texas from South Carolina in 1848. He served in both the House and Senate of the Texas legislature and was elected to the United States Senate in 1859. Combative and hard-drinking, Wigfall was a vociferous defender of slavery and an outspoken secessionist. Those factors and his reputation for oratory made him an imposing political figure. He allied with the Fire-Eaters in Congress until he resigned his senate seat in March 1861. When the Civil War began, he briefly served as a Confederate Brigadier General of the Texas Brigade and then returned to politics, serving in the Confederate Senate. After the war Wigfall went first to London and then returned to the United States in 1870. He died in Texas in 1874.

Organized in 1861 shortly after First Bull Run, The Irish Brigade’s nucleus was the 63d, 69th, and 88th New York Infantry. In the fall of 1862 the 28th Massachusetts and the 116th Pennsylvania were added, and the 29th Massachusetts served with it for a short time. It saw action in the Peninsular Campaign, at Antietam, Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Cedar Run, The Wilderness, Spotsylvania Court House, Cold Harbor, and Petersburg, in the 1st Division of the II Corps. Reorganized in November 1864, with the 7th New York Heavy Artillery replacing the 116th Pennsylvania, it was by then no longer the old organization and certainly could not be truthfully designated the Irish Brigade. It had suffered over 4,000 casualties in killed and wounded, a total which exceeded the number of men enrolled in it at any given time.

Of the five men who commanded the Irish Brigade, three were killed and the other two wounded. Colonel Richard Byrne was mortally wounded at Cold Harbor; Colonel Patrick Kelly was killed at Petersburg; Major General Thomas A. Smyth died at Farmville; and Brigadier Generals Robert Nugent and Thomas Meagher were both wounded.

The most colorful and flamboyant of its leaders was the original commander and organizer, General Thomas Francis Meagher. Born in County Waterford, Ireland in 1823, he was described as ‘the counterpart of some rash, impolitic, poetic personage from Irish poetry or fiction.’ Son of a wealthy merchant, he was an active disciple of Irish liberty and participated in the various independence movements. In 1845 the British exiled him to Tasmania. Three years later he escaped and eventually made his way to New York City. At various times a lawyer, lecturer, newspaper editor, and politician, his flaming oratory had made him a favorite of the ‘Young Ireland’ group and he soon became the political leader of the Irish element in New York. At the outbreak of the Civil War he raised a Zouave company and commanded it at First Bull Run as part of the 69th New York State Militia. That winter he organized the Irish Brigade and President Lincoln appointed him brigadier general of Volunteers in February 1862. (x)

He became the son of Calpornius

who served as the deacon of the metropolis of Bannavern Taburniae. St. Patrick got here from a rich circle of relatives so he by no means had struggles while developing up. In fact, the young St. Patrick grew up to be a wild Youngman, who "did now not recognize the proper God."

He grew up looking to be unbiased and oftentimes wandered far from the group. This made him an easy target of Irish pirates and resulted to his abduction wherein turned into introduced to Ireland. Study in Ireland It changed into in Ireland wherein St. Patrick remained as captive for a duration of six years. During that time, slavery turned into common and human rights had been never heard of. Hence, St. Patrick experienced heavy exertions being a slave. He survived the tough life he had in Ireland with the aid of turning to religion.

St. Patrick worked as a shepherd for his Master and most of his solitude time became spent wondering that his past mistakes lead him to come to be a slave consequently he needed repentance. He quickly learned to say hundred of prayers every morning and every night.

He was capable of get away Ireland and went lower back to his homeland. St. Patrick then determined to emerge as a clergyman and studied in France. After becoming a clergyman, he heard a voice telling him to go returned to Ireland. The subsequent 30 years of his lifestyles changed into spent in Ireland where he helped in constructing several churches, monasteries, and faculties in Ireland. He died on March 17 461, that's now being celebrated as St. Patrick's Day, a country wide vacation in Ireland.

Thomas Francis Meagher become born in 1823 in Waterford, Ireland. He turned into knowledgeable at Clongowes Wood College, Co. Kildare and Stoneyhurst College, Lancashire, England.

Meagher and different individuals of the Repeal Association who wrote for The Nation became called the Young Irelanders. In January 1847, Meagher, collectively with John Mitchel, William Smith O'Brien and Thomas Devin O'Reilly shaped a brand new repeal association referred to as the Irish Confederation. The following year, Meagher and O'Brien went to France to have a look at progressive occasions there and they back with the tricolour of green, white and gold which forms the basis of the Irish flag to the prevailing day. Influenced by means of events in France and the suspension of habeas corpus in Ireland, the Young Irelanders organised a failed rebellion. Meagher, Terence MacManus, O'Brien and Patrick O'Donoghue have been arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to be hung, drawn and quartered. However because of public and international pressure the sentences had been commuted to transportation to Van Diemens Land, Tasmania, Australia. Meagher escaped to america in 1852, settling in New York City where he founded two newspapers the Irish News and the Citizen.

On the twenty-first of July, beneath the burning sun. McDowell met the Southern troops in battle, at Bull Run; Above the Union vanguard, was proudly dancing seen, Beside the starry banner, old Erin's flag of green.Colonel Corcoran led the Sixty-ninth on that eventful day, I wish the Prince of Wales were there to see him in the fray; His charge upon the batteries was a most glorious scene, With gallant New York firemen, and the boys that wore the green.In the hottest of the fire there rode along the line A captain of a Zouave band, crying, "Now, boys, is your time;" Ah! who is he so proudly rides, with bold and dauntless mien? 'Tis Thomas Francis Meagher, of Erin's isle of green!The colors of the Sixty-ninth, I say it without shame, Were taken in the struggle to swell the victor's fame; But Farnham's dashing Zouaves, that run with the machine, Retook them in a moment, with the boys that wore the green!Being overpowered by numbers, our troops were forced to flee, The Southern black horse cavalry on them charged furiously; But in that hour of peril, the flying mass to screen, Stood the gallant New York firemen, with the boys that wore the green.Oh, the boys of the Sixty-ninth, they are a gallant band, Bolder never drew a sword for their adopted land; Amongst the fallen heroes, a braver had not been, Than you lamented Haggerty, of Erin's isle of green.Farewell, my gallant countrymen, who fell that fatal day, Farewell, ye noble firemen, now mouldering in the clay; Whilst blooms the leafy shamrock, whilst runs the old machine, Your deeds will live bold Red Shirts, and Boys that Wore the Green! Boys That Wore the Green- David Kincade
