Is briseadh mór croí dom an scéal a chloisteáil faoi bhás Mhanchán Magan ar maidin. Thug sé beocht agus brí nua don teanga trína chuid oibre ag léiriú gur lionsa eile í an Ghaeilge leis an domhan a fheiceáil agus a thuiscint.

Poetry is an ever-evolving medium—and over the past 25 years, authors have pursued astonishing new forms and reinvented old ones. The Atlantic’s editors compiled the best American poetry collections from the 21st century: theatln.tc/IdlTsUZQ

White British people aren’t under threat from multicultural Britain – they are part of it | Kieran Connell Reform would have you believe that multiculturalism is an act of exclusion. In fact, the opposite is the case, says historian and writer Kieran Connell

I have a piece in today’s Guardian based on my book in which I argue for an expanded, more inclusive definition of multiculturalism as a way out of the culture wars
