This week's episode is about Br\xf3d - no, not Miggledy Higgins's best dog (sorry Shadow!) but LGBTQ+ Pride, which is celebrated in Dublin from the 21st to the 30th of June. Ever since the 2015 marriage equality referendum and the ascension of Leo Varadkar to Taoiseach, LGBTQ+ inclusion has been central to how Ireland has presented itself to the world. However, this is an all-too-recent development and until 2018's publication of An Focl\xf3ir Aiteach (the Queer Dictionary) the vocabulary for many terms relating to queer experiences was not formally included in Irish.\n\nIn today's episode, Darach and Gear\xf3id\xedn are joined by Antoin Beag and Aifric, who talk about their fiche bliain ag f\xe1s on an island that was struggling to come to terms with who it really was.\n\n--- \n\nContact the show at https://twitter.com/motherfocloir or email us at motherfocloir@headstuff.org. \n\nYou can check out the Focl\xf3ir Aiteach here: http://usi.ie/focloir-aiteach/\nLearn more about your ad choices.
