b'The Irish for Wakanda Forever is "an U\\xe1caind Ab\\xfa!"\\n\\nThe Irish language has enough problems to deal with without being co-opted by bigots. Earlier this year, for example, a protester against the Black Lives Matter movement in America wore a t-shirt bearing the slogan "gorm chona\\xed \\xe1bhar", a translation of Blue Lives Matter so bad it\'s hard to know where to even begin correcting it.\\n\\nIrish survives and thrives as a confident, modern language that welcomes all the people who want to speak it. In today\'s episode, the first of a number of live recordings, Motherfocl\\xf3ir regular Ola Majekodunmi takes the hotseat and speaks to RT\\xc9 presenter Zainab Boladale about being Gaelscoil graduates of Nigerian heritage, online and offline jerks and what Irish means to them.\\n\\nThis episode was recorded live as part of Africa Day 2018 at Farmleigh House in Phoenix Park.\\n\\n--- \\n\\nContact the show at https://twitter.com/motherfocloir or email us at motherfocloir@headstuff.org.\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
