We’re deeply saddened by the passing of Manchán Magan.
A remarkable writer and broadcaster, his reflections on language, place, and identity captured so much of Ireland’s spirit.
It was a privilege to feature Manchán on the ARINS My Identity Podcast earlier this year.

Interesting discussion at MacGill on the toxic influence of social media on young men.
12 years ago at a centenary event of Emily Wilding Davison's death I first met reps from @ukfeminista.bsky.social who have amazing resources for teachers, students and parents - highly recommend for educators.
