Northern Civil Rights
The political campaign against discrimination in Northern Ireland was initiated in London by the Connolly Association in the later 1950s. Some photographs have survived from this period and are featured in the collection. The collection also features aspects of the NICRA (Northern Ireland Civil Rights Movement) campaign following that organisation’s foundation in Belfast in 1967 and the Northern civil rights marches that followed.
