Black History Month: Rosemary Adaser on surviving Ireland's mother and baby institution and the untold history of the incarceration of mixed race children

The one where we see how the racism against mixed race people is part of our history

In honour of Black History Month, Emma and Nicole speak to Rosemary Adaser, the founder and former CEO of the Association of Mixed-Race Irish. Rosemary was a member of the Collaborative Forum on Mother and Baby Homes, and campaigned to ensure the commission examined the experiences of children who had Irish mothers and fathers of colour, highlighting to the world the damning evidence of abuse that took place in Irish mother and baby institutions when these children were abandoned and handed over to the state.
