Sinn Féin Councilor in Rhode Island to provide update on Bloody Sunday Trust Campaign

Sinn Féin Councilor Aisling Hutton visited Rhode Island on Friday to provide an update on the Bloody Sunday Trust Campaign.

After the event, she said, “It was an honour to attend the Rhode Island Céilí Club to commemorate Bloody Sunday and to give an update on the ongoing efforts for truth, justice and accountability.

“Sincere thanks to the 1916 Committee for their incredible hospitality and welcome. It was deeply appreciated and speaks volumes about the strength of community and commitment that exists here.

“Irish America has played, and continues to play, a vital role in supporting Ireland and our efforts to unite our Island. From solidarity shown decades ago to the support given today, that bond remains strong and meaningful.

“The backing, understanding and encouragement from Irish America has mattered . It mattered then, it matters now, and it will continue to matter as we carry this work forward.

“I was very honoured to visit the memorial garden in Rhode Island in memory of The Famine, The Hunger Strike and The Easter Rising. A moment of remembrance honouring our dead and the strength of the Irish Disapora.

“Go raibh míle maith agaibh to everyone who attended, listened, and stood in solidarity.”
