Tar Anall Belfast

The annual Coiste Prisoners’ Day returns with a focus on the 50th anniversary of the ending of political status and the beginning of the prison protests.

The event will explore the political, social and historical impact of the British Government’s decision to withdraw political status on 1st March 1976. Danny Morrison will open proceedings by outlining the political context surrounding the change in policy and its significance.

A series of panel discussions will then examine the experiences of those directly affected. Former prisoners will reflect on the atmosphere and the conditions in Crumlin Road Gaol and Armagh Gaol following the withdrawal of political status, the opening of the H-Blocks, the increasingly repressive regime in Armagh and the conditions endured as the situation deteriorated and protests escalated.

Family members will discuss the initial confusion surrounding the policy change and the gradual growth of public awareness and support. Former activists and relatives will also reflect on the organisation of protests and demonstrations across Ireland and the growing international attention focused on the prison struggle.

The event will conclude with a discussion on the wider impact of the prison protests and hunger strikes, including their significance within the broader struggle, the emergence of Sinn Féin’s electoral strategy and the enduring legacy of the prison protests for future generations.
