The Troubles in Northern Ireland | A Brief History of Belfast

Показать описание
During our visit to Belfast, we took a trip up the Falls Road, a road synonymous with the Troubles of Belfast, and Northern Ireland. The Falls road and neighboring road Shankill road are infamous for their divide and sectarian violence from the 1960s/70s right up to today.

To get a proper insight into the history of Befast during the Troubles, we would recommend doing some research, as we only briefly touched on it. We would also recommend watching the movie Some Mothers Son, which is about Bobby Sands and his struggles during the hunger strikes.

This is the second of two episodes focusing on Belfast, on our Northern Ireland Roadtrip Series.

I did the Belfast Political Tour Conflicting Stories Walking Tour, Jan 24 2023, with Paddy and Mark. The tour you mentioned Absolutely outstanding. Highly recommend it to get both sides of this tragic history.

Really interesting video. Are there any programmes/films you'd recommend to learn more about it?

Omg!!! We are so behind! I didn’t realize you guys posted so much!!! We have been so out of it! Catching up now!! Wow didn’t know there was a barrier before but nice that there are murals now. Thanks for sharing this though. Can’t believe that guy did a hunger strike for 66 days! So sad for Irish freedom. Never knew about this history but now we know so much more <3 we would definitely consider one of those tours! Love it.

Great banter calling the video a walkthrough but you're sat in your car for a lot of the video 😂

See for a start I’m from the shankill road and I personally see southern registrations everyday and there is not a thing wrong with it I travel on the springfield road/ falls road everyday off my life. You have made this sound worse than it is in recent years
