Conversations - Dr. Philomena Mullen: Experiences of Mixed Race Irish Women in Irish Industrial Schools
Dr Philomena Mullen discusses her investigation into the identity construction of women of mixed African-Irish descent, with white Irish mothers and African fathers, who grew up in the Irish institutional care system. This crucial research explores how racial /ethnic identities are shaped by Irish society and how we read racialisation in White Irish culture.
She also provides context for her short story entitled " Black Baby box", an insightful account of her early years in an industrial school in Booterstown ( Ireland).
Philomena Mullen is the spokesperson for the Association of Mixed Race Irish. Her research links into the campaign of the Association of Mixed Race Irish seeking recognition and justice for past violations and racism. She'll focus on the conflicting statements published in The Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes.
