Sue Pentel on Gaza, Protest & Solidarity in Ireland
Description
On this episode we speak with activist Sue Pentel, a 72-year-old Jewish grandmother and member of both the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign and Jews for Palestine Ireland. Sue was recently arrested in Belfast by the PSNI during a peaceful protest against the genocide in Gaza. She shares her story and why she continues to speak out.
We also spotlight the role of artists and musicians across Europe who are refusing to stay silent despite increasing censorship of Palestinian solidarity in mainstream spaces.
Plus, we take a look at the State of Writing in Ireland – 2024 with new findings from the Writers’ Guild of Ireland, revealing the stark financial realities facing Irish writers today.
