Constance Markievicz died 1927.
Undoubtedly brave, charismatic and got shit done, for many decades she was the only revolutionary woman mentioned in history books. Of 5 statues of women in Dublin, 3 are of her! She's well-commemorated and the Wild Gees are about under-told stories. Thanks to , huge work has been done to bring other revolutionary women to public attention 👏 We salute the Countess all the same

Who gets to bear the burden of hero worship in Cork city? Those living in social housing developments marked out by names of political revolutionaries.
Handy way to keep postcode prejudice alive.

Names from the map that would be social-status neutral: Skahabeg, Raheen, Cooleen, Evergreen, Nursery, Coppinger, Lawn, Quarry, Kiln.

And don't get me started on 'Mews'

Perhaps the most long-lasting achievement that has shaped nationhood is that by 1906 women could not only vote, but stand as candidates for elections. Today, the five government parties are led by women. @UCD_Research@twitter.com
