Great piece on RTE Culture today about ‘State, In Relation’ a collaborative project that brings writers together to engage with the Irish Constitution
Oein deBhairduin writes powerfully about the constitution in relation to the 1963 Report of the Commission on Itinerancy

Tune into @2fm.rte.ie this morning at 10.20am to hear Rosaleen McDonagh chat to Doireann Garrihy about 'Contentious Spaces'
We're delighted to have a table at this Saturday's Radical Book Fair, taking place in the Teacher's Club on Parnell Square, Dublin
We'll be there between 12pm and 4pm selling our beautiful books, alongside some other brilliant small publishers and zines. Call in and say hey!
'This is a tour de force that shows how a resilient Traveller culture has survived despite racism and its quieter cousin, segregation.'
Thanks to @katharineq.bsky.social for a wonderfully in-depth review of #ContentiousSpaces
