The story of Catholic schools in Northern Ireland: past, present and possible future
No full textGallagher contends that Catholic schools remain the most significant social institution of the minority in the North, and their relationship with the State represents the most important interface between the Catholic community and the Unionist establishment. That relationship has changed significantly over time, and the author assesses the challenges to the power of the Bishops by the refusal of most Catholic grammar schools to move away from academic selection

Breaking through silence: tackling controversial barriers through interprofessional engagement
No full textNorthern Ireland is probably best known for the period of political violence that ended with a political agreement in 1998. The terms of the agreement included an elected local Assembly in which the representatives of the two main religious communities, Protestants and Catholics, would share power in an Executive. The fragility of the peace agreement is illustrated by the fact that it was not possible to actually establish the Executive until 2000 and it collapsed again in 2002. Following an intense period of negotiations and two separate elections, the Executive was finally re-established in 2007.<br/
Tokyo Burning Interview with Tony Barnstone
No full textInterview with Tony Barnstone about adapting his poetry to music. Tokyo\u27s Burning is a CD that tells history from the inside, telling stories of the Pacific theater of WWII not from the God\u27s eye view but from the points of view of American and Japanese civilians and soldiers who lived and suffered through Pearl Harbor and Iwo Jima, the firebombing of Tokyo and the atom bomb drop on Hiroshima. Songs in the CD are based upon 15 years of research into the Pacific theater of WWII by Tony Barnstone—poet, author, and professor at Whittier College in Los Angeles. Tony worked with oral histories, histories, diaries, letters, and memoirs, and did his own interviews with vets and their families to write a book of poems titled Tongue of War: From Pearl Harbor to Nagasaki (BkMk Press, 2009). Though many of the songs deal with atrocity—sex slavery, torture, internment camps, even cannibalism—the CD itself is meant to take a neutral stance, allowing each character to speak his or her view, without judgment, assuming that the readers will find their own moral paths through these competing voices and viewpoints. As one character says, Seems everyone has a point of view, but no one has perspective. L.A.-based songwriters John Clinebell and Ariana Hall, who work together under the name Genuine Brandish, were commissioned by Tony to work with him to translate his book into 15 songs (with the essential help of producer Andrew Bush). What if history had a human face? What if the people who lived history could speak to it? This CD is an attempt to amplify the smaller voices, the human voices, of those who lived through the war and help them to sing history to us
