History is turning its gaze on violence and its effects during this turbulent period, one hundred years ago next 21 November, when over 30 people were killed in three separate events: the assassination of British intelligence agents by Michael Collins’ Squad in the morning, the shooting in reprisal of civilians at a match in Croke Park in the afternoon, and the torture and killing of Dick McKee, Peadar Clancy and Conor Clune at Dublin Castle that night.

First Thought Talks are presented in association with Festival Education Partner NUI Galway. Watch more talks online: https://www.giaf.ie/talks/
