It features quirky Cork locations like the Quay Co-op and Loafer\u2019s Bar.<\/p>\n<p>It provides a unique insight into activism in Ireland in an era before mobile phones, computers and social media. It features gestetner machines, badge making machines and newspaper pages clipped to a clothes line. It includes both a trip to Greenham Common Women\u2019s Peace Camp and a trip on a pony over a mountain just to make a phone call in the local pub.<\/p>\n<p>Diary of an Activist is an intergenerational collaboration between activist and writer Orla Egan and artist Megan Luddy O\u2019Leary. The beautifully illustrated story brings to light a history of activism that has previously been hidden, making it accessible and engaging.<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday 20 September, Banner Books, Kilrush, 19:00 &#8211; 21:00 pm.
