Northern Irish Action


Irish Northern Aid (INA) works to raise awareness of British misrule in Ireland by highlighting the colonial and sectarian nature of partition. They inform Americans of abuses of human rights faced by the residents of the six occupied counties, and work for the right of the Irish people to national self-determination and an end to the continuing outrages against these residents.

While the Good Friday Agreement provides a blueprint and a way forward for Ireland, there are those who would rejoice in it becoming an empty, meaningless document. But the vast majority of people in Ireland voted for its full implementation, and INA works hard to see their wishes come into being.

Join INA-DC at its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, July 12, at 6:30 p.m., at Flannagans' Irish Pub (7637 Old Georgetown Rd., Bethesda). For more information, call Randy Cecil at 301/325-5560.
