'Northern Protestants: On Shifting Ground'. Susan McKay in Conversation - Dublin Festival of History Twenty years on from her critically acclaimed book, Northern Protestants: An Unsettled People, Susan McKay talks again to the Protestant community in Northern Ireland.
The book contains interviews with politicians, former paramilitaries, victims and survivors, business people, religious leaders, community workers, young people, writers and others.
It tackles controversial issues, such as Brexit, paramilitary violence, the border, the legacy of the Troubles, same-sex marriage and abortion, RHI, and the possibility of a United Ireland, and explores social justice issues and campaigns, particularly the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights.
Susan McKay is an award-winning writer and commentator and contributes regularly to print and broadcast media, including Guardian/Observer, New York Times, Irish Times and London Review of Books.
