There is perhaps no image of America more ubiquitous than the cowboy. Close your eyes and you can see him now, blazing dusty trails surrounded by cacti and sweat. But who were the actual cowboys? And how did the cowboy, through film, television, and literature, become one of the defining symbols of America? Join us online for a special edition of American Identity!
ELR Charlie has just returned from his summer holidays, and once again he has news to share from the outside world. This time he visited a friend in Northern Ireland, a country whose people still bear the memory of The Troubles (which only ended in 1999). Since then, a peacebuilding process has been ongoing, with various ups and downs. What is life actually like in Northern Ireland? How do people here remember the conflict? Is it possible to move onwards and upwards? Join us this week to discuss life in a divided country and all things peacebuilding!
