Description

John Emond was an official observer at the May 5, 2022 General Assembly election in Northern Ireland. Despite centuries-old animosity between Loyalist and Nationalist communities, the voting process was peaceful.  Emond will highlight key political parties and issues, and why the election results are historic.  He will also visually explore Northern Ireland at the crossroads: how far the communities have come in peaceful progress, but also significant challenges that clearly remain.  What can our divided country learn from Northern Ireland?
