Martina Anderson, former IRA Volunteer, political prisoner, and Sinn Féin MEP, MLA and Stormont Minister, will sign copies of her biography, Choosing the Struggle, tomorrow Friday, November 13, in Charlie Byrne’s Bookshop, Galway, at 6PM.
In her book she tells of her coming to political awareness in her native Derry, her political activism, joining the IRA and subsequent imprisonment in Armagh Women’s Prison.
She went on, in the post Good Friday Agreement era, to become a MLA in Stormont, a Minister there, and then a Member of the European Parliament representing the North of Ireland before Brexit closed that chapter of her interesting life of struggle for the cause she still believes in.
Martina will sign copies of her book in Charlie Byrne’s Bookshop and participate in a conversation after. All are welcome.
Proceeds from the sales of Martina’s biography, Choosing the Struggle, will go to the Martin McGuinness Monument Foundation.
