Protestant abuse victims must also be heard Irish Times, Wednesday, July 1, 2009 http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/opinion/2009/0701/1....html OPINION: Victims of Protestant prejudice and State neglect are at a disadvantage, writes DEREK LEINSTER YOU DON’T have to be a Catholic to be listened to as a victim of institutional abuse, but it seems to help. That is my experience as a Protestant victim of institutional neglect. Like all sufferers, I am a victim of prejudice. It was prejudice that forced my mother into the Bethany Home in Orwell Road, Rathgar in 1941 for the “social sin” (as one cleric put it) of being pregnant out of wedlock. To add to her burden, her gestating baby had a Catholic father. Marriage in those circumstances was out, and so was I, fostered out to a dysfunctional family in Wicklow where I was beaten black and blue and (I mention it since it seems to be what Irish people are most interested in) sexually molested. read full story / add a comment

Europeans were mostly responsible for the museum industry as much as the grand symphonic orchestras, opera and zoos. They used these things at first not out of any wish to educate nor illuminate in the laudable manner of contemporary interpretative centres but to solve three important 19th century bourgois problems. 1) how to gainfully employ people who really smellt bad but are now represented as Indiano Jones. 2) how to reclaim supposedly civilised history from the church of Rome. 3) how to offer vandals like Lord Elgin bequest options and subsequent relief from death taxes. read full story / add a comment
