In this Reboot Republic, Rory talks to Paula Kearney, a community worker in the North East Inner City about the community response to the recent proposals around armed gardai, the reality of life for young people and communities in the inner city, the structural violence of inequality and exclusion that is done by the state to these communities, issues around police violence against young people, and solutions based on tackling inequalities, homelessness, the housing crisis, regulation and decriminalisation and supporting young people.
Note: The phrase ‘Was everyone in the north inner city born in a robbed car’ comes from a Garda comment to a north inner city resident.
