Our Future Will Become the Past of Other Women

Our Future Will Become the Past of Other Women

For St Brigid's Day 2021, we are proud to present this reading of an Eavan Boland poem- with further thanks to Paula McGloin and Joey Yee

As part of our St Brigid’s Day 2021 celebrations, the Consulate General of Ireland, San Francisco has created a video to honour and venerate Irish women.

Twenty Irish and Irish American community leaders from across the Western USA combine to form a choir reciting the late Eavan Boland’s poem ‘Our Future will Become the Past of Other Women’. Many thanks to all.
