Thursday: The Old Divide Book Launch
A history of sectarianism in Scotland
Author, journalist, and political activist Chris Bambery has written extensively about history and politics, both at home and abroad.
In his latest book, The Old Divide: A History of Sectarianism in Scotland, he looks at the roots of the country’s sectarianism problem and its toxic legacy.
Come to this book launch, hosted by Conter, as we discuss the historical events that have constructed sectarianism in Scotland.
From the misconception that it is primarily linked to football rivalry to its connections to Irish Home Rule and Irish migration. And why damaging tropes must be dismantled.
