We took our RAY youths to Queens University Belfast to watch a film The Victims’ Stories. The film interviews people that have suffered directly from the Northern Ireland troubles and oppose the Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Bill. It was very educational and sad to watch, after the film the Victims then took part in an open discussion on various topics that was highlighted in the film. A big Thank You to Raymond McCord and Queens University Belfast for having us.
