The Annual Republican Commemoration in UCC is taking place Monday the 21st of March.
It begins at 7pm in front of the Student Centre, and the main Speaker is newly elected Cork North Central TD, Jonathan O'Brien. The macCurtain/MacSwiney RFB will be in attendance.
This years commemoration is of particular note, due to the historic breakthrough in electing 2 Cork TDs in the most recent general election, but also as it is the 90th anniversary of the Dripsey Ambush, which is where a number of those buried were captured and subsequently executed.
