i remember hearing about bobby sands dyng oh ya wo. He was 26 years old when he started this strike, and i think he turned 27 a during the strike. Anda he finally, you know, died of starvation on may fifth. This was 66 days into the ik a. Riot start erupting, i all over the place, and protest all over the world. Basically, it was a very, a very public matter.
In the early 1980s, imprisoned IRA members went on a prolonged hunger strike, leading to the death of ten men. This is their story.
