The Troubles 1960s-1990s
John Hume 1937-2020
‘Northern Ireland remembers how hard John Hume’s task really
was,
and that “the bits in black and white”
on the way to peace involved decades
of often thankless, always exhausting activism.’

I held John Hume in awe.
His political bravery gave my generation peace
The Northern Irish politician was a living inspiration
to people like me in Derry amid the dark days of the Troubles
