Keep your eye out for the Spring issue of DOPE magazine, where MDR is running a regular feature showcasing our archive collection to emphasise the importance of learning from history for today’s political struggles!
This upcoming article, Troops Out Now! by Medb McDaid, looks at the history of the Troops Out Movement (1971-1997), which campaigned in Britain for the withdrawal of British troops from Ireland and Irish self-determination from. Medb looks at TOM as a useful blueprint for contemporary anti-war activists and their need to counter the current rise of militarisation, colonialism and authoritarianism today.
