For the 53rd anniversary of Bloody Sunday there will be an audio exhibition of Deirdre Brennan and Barry Connolly’s podcast "My Bloody Sunday" at St Columb's Hall in Derry on Sunday, January 26 from 11.00am to 5.00pm.
To mark the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in 2022, photographer Deirdre Brennan created a series of portraits of the relatives of the victims, those who attended to the dying on the day, journalists and photographers who recorded the events. While taking the photographs she also recorded interviews.
The recordings have culminated in the three part podcast edited and arranged by Barry Connolly @ Plexa.
Featured are: Relatives of the victims; Eamonn McCann who was on the march; Nurse Ursula Clifford who tended to the dying and wounded; Fulvio Grimaldi who took the iconic photograph of Fr Edward Daly waving the bloodied white handkerchief as he attempted to lead those carrying a dying teenager Jackie Duddy to safety; Kay Duddy, the sister of Jackie Duddy; Charlie Glenn, the Order of Malta volunteer who is helping to carry Jackie in the photograph; William Rukeyser, an American journalist covering the march for the US media.
