    Location Trinity College Dublin

    We’re very pleased to invite you to the launch of In the Half Light: Voices from Black Ireland, a new podcast series featuring the voices of ‘mixed-race’ people who grew up in Irish care institutions. The series explores the impact of their erasure from institutional abuse history and discourse. Through conversation, they aim to undo that erasure, one voice at a time.
