Garranbane NS raises in excess of €15,000 for sensory room
Following a community fundraising campaign, Garranbane National School has raised more than €15,000 for their new sensory room.

Mare of Easttown, Part 2 – The Spiritual Practice of Welcoming Prayer
How can welcoming the parts of us that aren’t like Jesus help us become more Christlike? Isn’t this a paradox? Find out on this episode, where author Helena Sorensen and host Kristy Lahoda discuss how to welcome what is part of us in the current moment and allow it to teach us. Join them as they discuss how Pennsylvania detective Mare Sheehan, in the HBO series Mare of Easttown written by Brad Ingelsby, learned to do this rather than bury it as she had done, allowing it to set up permanent residence.

For Marxists in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, these were some of the most important questions to be addressed in their work. The cross-fertilization between Marxism and science had major implications for the development of both. Helena Sheehan, emeritus professor at Dublin City University and the author of Marxism and the Philosophy of Science, joins the podcast to discuss the history of this encounter.Read Helena's article "John Desmond Bernal, Marxism, and the Scientific...

They continue with the Austromarxists and Neokantianism, its influence on Bogdanov and the Bolshevik Machists, and Lenin's reply in Materialism and Empirio-criticism. They...

Class, Race, Gender and Knowledge with Helena Sheehan by Amandla!Media
How do class, race and gender impact on the production of knowledge? Is it enough to include those who have been excluded from advanced knowledge? Or has knowledge itself been tainted by the exclusions of class, race, gender and colonial conquest? How to proceed with such realisations? How do we decolonise our minds and our universities? Should we repudiate existing knowledge and start again at zero? Or should we return to the indigenous knowledge of our ancestors? Or should we engage in a radical and critical transformation? How has Rhodes Must Fall dramatised these dilemmas? What does Marxism have...
