Im katholischen Irland galten uneheliche Kinder als Schande. Durch die Komplizenschaft von Kirche, Staat und Gesellschaft starben hunderte Babys, die in Massengräbern verscharrt wurden. Jetzt sollen Ausgrabungen in Tuam das dunkle Kapitel aufklären. Weingart, Christopher www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Zeitfragen. Feature

The small Irish town of Tuam is home to one of Ireland's most shocking secrets. During the 20th century, thousands of children born out of wedlock were taken from their mothers, branded the 'children of sin' and sent to institutions run by nuns. At St Mary's, it's claimed 800 died of preventable causes, their remains discarded. Now, following a decade-long campaign for justice, an excavation has begun. Will it finally uncover the truth?

We began this week by exploring the chaos which had been unleased in Tuam, as nearly 100 families have been impacted by the foreclosure of the Happily Ever After creche.  The childcare facility cannot continue to function as the owner's, Tuam Parish, have been hit with a bill of over 1 million euro if they decide to proceed with renovations of the building.  A lot of families have been left in the lurch, and do not know where to turn as there are no places available in any of the crèches in the Tuam hinterland or further afield.  It's may result in job losses and hard decisions for families who are scrambling to find alternative arrangements with family or further afield.  I went out to Tuam last Saturday and spoke to a number of the families affected by this, as well as the Minister locally, Seán Canney. What is pyschosis and is there stigma surrounding the condition? We explored this subject in an open and honest way with Renmore man Conor Gavin. "You're not a psychopath, you just experienced an episode of pyschosis"  At just 16, Conor experienced his first psychotic episode and now, he's the Co-Ordinator of Ireland's new Psychosis Research Centre and founder of the Psychosis Arts Collective.  Drawing on his lived experience, he is using his voice to drive change, challenge stigma, and show that recovery from psychosis is possible. He spoke to Galway Talks about the advice the psychiatrist gave him after his first episode.   It was a big week in the presidential election campaign as polling approaches on the 24th of October.  Both candidates were on the programme with us this week.  We started by interviewing independent candidate Catherine Connolly, discussing a number of issues from the campaign and some of key local issues here in Galway, including the likes of the mother and baby homes scandal the ring road in Galway and a question from one of our T.Y media week students.  We also spoke to the Fine Gael candidate and former minister, Heather Humphreys, asking questions on repeating the seal on the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes, her offices and more.  Make sure to exercise your democratic rights and get to the polling booth on Friday next. Also make sure to tune into our next Community Matters series programme in Mervue from the Credit Union.

Galway Boxers Adam Hession from Monivea and Martin McDonagh from Tuam will be taking on the world at the World Amateur Boxing Championships this week in Liverpool. The draw will be held on Wednesday, with the Championships themselves beginning on Thursday.  This week also saw a significant sponsorship announcement with the IABA announcing a game-changing multi-year partnership with global giant Nike, the world's biggest sportswear brand. This collaboration marks a milestone, as IABA international boxers will wear the iconic Nike swoosh in the ring and on the podium, all the way up to the LA 2028 Olympics. In partnering, IABA and Nike are raising the commercial profile of boxing, at home and worldwide.  Ahead of that announcement, Adam (Who is also Irish Team Captain along with Aoife O'Rourke) and Martin joined John Mulligan on Sunday Sport. 

This week, I sit down with PJ Haverty, who shares his powerful story of being born in the Mother and Baby Home in Tuam in the 1950s. PJ's mother was sent there after becoming pregnant out of wedlock, and despite coming back every week for over five years, the nuns refused to return her little boy to her.Fostered out, PJ grew up carrying the loss of his mother, a wound that shaped his life. In time he began to search for his birth mother but alongside the love he had for her came anger and grief for what had been stolen from them both.This conversation shines a light on the deep impact of the Mother and Baby Homes, and on PJ's journey of loss, love, and survival.*Very brief mention of abuse For more information on Grief Retreats visit www.griefireland.com

Anna Corrigan grew up in Dublin, Ireland. She thought she was an only child, until she was in her 50s and discovered a family secret. Corrigan found documents showing her mother had spent time in one of Ireland's so-called mother and baby homes — places where single women went to give birth. And that she had given birth to two sons there. Two brothers that Corrigan never knew she had.It's part of a sad history in Ireland that is now being unearthed, literally. Scientists believe that nearly 800 babies and children are buried in a mass grave behind one former mother and baby home in Tuam, Ireland.NPR's Lauren Frayer reports on the work that forensic scientists are now doing to bring those remains to light.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Emma Klein and Michael Levitt.

Last night England faced Wales in their final match of the group stage of the UEFA Women's Euro and England came out victorious - winning 6-1 and knocking Wales out of the tournament in the process. To discuss the result, Nuala McGovern is joined by England's top goal scorer and former Lioness Ellen White, and Laura McAllister, Vice-President of UEFA, who was previously the captain of Wales' women's team, gaining 24 caps for her country. For over 40 years, Helena Bonham Carter has delighted us with roles including Lucy Honeychurch in Room with a View, Princess Margaret in The Crown and Harry Potter's much-loved villain, Bellatrix Lestrange. She joins Nuala in the studio to discuss her latest role in new film, Four Letters of Love. Based on the bestselling book of the same name, she plays Margaret Gore, the wife of a poet living on a remote island in the West of Ireland in the 1970s. We bring you the latest on the excavation of a mass grave of babies and young children at Tuam in County Galway in Ireland, due to begin later today. The exhumations will be carried out at the site of an institution for unmarried mothers, which operated between 1925 and 1961. We speak to journalist Alison O'Reilly, one of the women who pushed to get this investigation underway. All this week we're taking a deep dive into the world of gaming. It's an industry worth £6bn - more than music, TV and film combined - so we'll be exploring what impact it has on our lives (whether we realise it or not) and where women come into it. First up, we're joined by video game reporter and eSports presenter Frankie Ward and Twitch streamer Alyce, also known online as Alyska Plays, to discuss.

C'est l'un des chapitres les plus sombres de l'histoire irlandaise : le scandale des foyers pour mères et bébés. Pendant des décennies, en Irlande, des milliers de femmes tombées enceintes hors mariage ont été internées de force dans des institutions dirigées par l'Église catholique. Beaucoup de leurs enfants n'ont pas survécu et ont été enterrés en secret. À Tuam, dans l'ouest du pays, sur le site désormais tristement célèbre de l'un de ces foyers, les premières exhumations débutent ce mardi 15 juillet 2025.   À lire aussiIrlande: des experts vont exhumer les restes de 796 enfants morts dans des foyers religieux pour mères célibataires

Excavation work has begun this morning at the site of the former mother-and-baby home in Tuam, Co Galway. This all started 11 years ago with the work and determination of local historian Catherine Corless, after she found that there were no burial records for almost 800 babies and infants who died at the home over a 36-year period.

I'm going to be a voice for these childrenChris Page, the BBC's Ireland correspondent speaks to the Irish historian Catherine Corless, who has changed history in her own country.When she began to research a long-closed mother and baby home near where she lived, she encountered local resistance. But her dogged investigation led to the discovery that hundreds of babies and young children were buried in mass, unmarked graves inside a disused sewage tank at the site in Tuam, Ireland.Her work led to the discovery of the scandal of Ireland's historical mother and baby institutions, which housed unmarried mothers and their babies at a time when they were ostracized by Irish society and often their families too. An inquiry launched by the Irish government into the network of homes concluded about nine thousand children died in the eighteen homes investigated.The revelation led to apologies from the Catholic Church in Ireland, the Irish Government, the council which owned the home in Tuam and the religious order which ran the home. The order has also contributed millions of dollars to a compensation scheme, and to the excavation now underway in Tuam.Thank you to Chris Page and Chrissie McGlinchey from the BBC's Ireland bureau for their help in making this programme.

On todays Show James, Sarah and Dwayne talk about the Tuam mass grave scandal in Ireland, where 796 babies were allegedly buried in a septic tank between 1922 and 1961. The participants debated the historical context, including overcrowding, malnutrition, and high infant mortality rates. They noted that the Irish government and Catholic Church faced criticism for their handling of the situation. The conversation also touched on the broader implications of birthright citizenship, with concerns about retroactive changes to citizenship status and the legal complexities involved. The group emphasized the need for a balanced perspective on historical events and the challenges faced by institutions during difficult times. The discussion centered on the complexities of birthright citizenship and immigration policies. Speakers debated the feasibility of Trump's proposals, including the potential for a Supreme Court hold and the challenges of revoking citizenship for children born to undocumented parents. They highlighted the backlog in the immigration system and the difficulties of proving legal status. The conversation also touched on the cultural assimilation of immigrants, particularly from Central America versus those from Islamic countries, and the potential for enclaves that refuse to assimilate. The group emphasized the need for a balanced approach that considers the best interests of children and the practicality of enforcement. Don't miss it!

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The question haunts us all: Why do we suffer? And more importantly, does our suffering have meaning? In this profound conversation with Dr. Aaron Kheriaty—psychiatrist, author, and courageous voice during recent cultural upheavals—we explore the Christian understanding of suffering that offers liberation rather than mere explanation.Join Jack Rigert and Dr. Aaron Kheriaty as they explore the profound themes of suffering, faith, and the significance of the cross in Christianity. They discuss how suffering is an inherent part of the human experience and how it can lead to deeper spiritual understanding and connection with Christ. Dr. Kheriaty emphasizes the importance of prayer, particularly the simple prayer "Doce me passionem Tuam"—teach me your suffering. This brief aspiration, when repeated throughout our days of struggle, shifts our focus from demanding explanations to entering more deeply into Christ's redemptive love. The conversation also highlights the role of the Mass as a central aspect of Christian life, where believers can encounter the sacrifice of Christ and find healing and joy in their own suffering.For anyone struggling with physical pain, psychological anguish, or spiritual questioning, this conversation offers not easy answers but something better—a way forward that acknowledges suffering's reality while discovering its redemptive potential.

Hailing from Galway, KONNO has spent the last number of years dipping his toe in the music scene, producing and collaborating with other artists, including working behind the scenes on a number one single for RACHEL and opening for the Saw Doctors throughout the UK and Ireland with Darragh O'Dea and The Delicate Dogs. Now, it is time for KONNO to take centre stage. Known for his deeply personal lyrics, guitar driven sound and memorable hooks, KONNO released his self-produced debut single 'Meet Me Later' at the end of 2024. 'Dream Talks is an anthem for anyone who's ever been messed over' so says KONNO of his upcoming release, adding, 'writing this song nearly killed me. I was dealing with a situation where I felt betrayed by a person I thought had my best interests at heart. There were lots of anxious nights but looking back at it now, I'm proud of how I handled everything. It was cathartic to get that all out in the new record.' Alongside this release, KONNO is gearing up for an exciting summer ahead. With an upcoming gig in St. Mary's cathedral Tuam, and a five-track debut EP in the works, 2025 is looking bright for KONNO.

Hey CK, this is one of the most disgusting things we've ever come across.  This is the story that's big in the news now, but nobody listened in 2008, or 2014, now nobody is left to face responsibility.  From 1925-1961 Catholic Nuns convinced unwed mothers to surrender their "bastard" children and then do a year of free labor at the home.  The children we have death certificates for averaged about 2 deaths per week which is 6-7 times the national average.  The living children were "sold into adoption."  This is not an anomaly, it happened all over and is still happening in parts of the world.  You'll be shocked (or maybe not) by the Vatican's response, the nuns treatment of the women, and you'll get to hear from the woman who dug it all up and from relatives of the victims.  Don't miss this one and SHARE! likes are great, but sharing is the key!

On Monday, preparatory works began at the former site of the mother and baby institution in Tuam, Co Galway in advance of the long-awaited excavation to identify the remains of nearly 800 infants. The excavation, which is due to start in mid-July, takes place 11 years after research by local historian Catherine Corless found 796 children had died at the institution run by the Bon Secours religious order between 1925-1961. How long will the excavation take, what does it expect to find and what will happen to the remains of the infants uncovered at the former mother and baby home? Irish Times reporter Órla Ryan reflects on the decade since the Tuam revelations and the latest steps in bringing closure to family members still seeking answers. Presented by Sorcha Pollak. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The tradition of women taking their husband's surname stems from a time when marriage effectively erased a woman's legal identity and she would become her husband's property. While this is no longer the case and society has thankfully moved on, the practice of women changing their last name upon marriage still persists today. But why?In a recent feature for The Irish Times, journalist Áine Kenny poses the question: “If changing one's name isn't a big deal and isn't sexist, why don't we see more men taking their wife's surname?”To explore this further, Kenny joins Róisín Ingle on the latest episode of the podcast, alongside parenting columnist Jen Hogan. Together, they discuss why they did and didn't keep their own names after marriage. But first Ingle and Kathy Sheridan are in the studio together to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the long awaited excavation of the Tuam babies site, which is to begin on Monday. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
