January 23 marked the 5th anniversary of the death of Dolours Price. She and her sister Marian Price were captured in Britain, where they were part of the IRA's efforts to take the war to the imperialists. In prison they went on hunger strike to demand they be sent back to the north of Ireland to serve their sentences, they were force-fed by the Brits. Their health never really recovered. Both sisters opposed the sell-out by the cabal around Gerry Adams and continued to struggle for the national emancipation of Ireland and the liberation of the Irish working class. Below is a tribute to Dolours by former IRA chief-of-staff and first president of Provisional Sinn Fein, Ruairi O Bradaigh: https://theirishrevolution.wordpress.com/2013/01/30/ruairi-o-bradaigh-on-dolours-price/ The socialist-republican party Eirigi put out a good statement on the vindictiveness of the British state towards the Price sisters (for instance, at the time of Dolours' death, Marian was being held without trial in the north and was refused leave to attend the funeral): https://theirishrevolution.wordpress.com/2013/01/27/eirigi-statement-on-british-vindictiveness-and-the-price-sisters/ _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
