Summary:

An interview about conflict with Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams

Tones:

Contemplative, Intimate, Melancholic

Language:

English

Description:

Gerry Adams, Sinn Fein President and reputed IRA leader, has been using St. Patrick's Day to promote the Irish peace process as an example for other conflicts around the world. This piece is an intimate interview with Adams about conflict in all its forms and what is needed to end conflict.

The longer version is, of course, more substantive and better addresses Adams's views on violence and peace. The shorter version will fit in the cutaway and is more pegged to St. Patrick's Day.
