Irish Freedom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Irish Freedom was launched in November 1910, as an Irish monthly publication of the Irish Republican Brotherhood movement. It lasted for four years until suppressed in 1914 by the British.[1]
The name Irish Freedom was later to resurface as Saoirse Irish Freedom in May 1987 after the Republican Bulletin, the official paper of the Republican Sinn Féin, changed its name.[2]
