Ep 336 Republic of Shame – Caelainn Hogan on chronicling Ireland’s mother-and-baby homes

In her new book ‘Republic of Shame’, journalist Caelainn Hogan examines Ireland’s mother-and-baby homes and the collusion of the Catholic Church with the Irish State. Personal accounts from survivors, nuns and others bring the truth forward for all to see. In today’s podcast, Róisín speaks to Caelainn about the stories of the women she spoke to, the lack of understanding of the suffering they endured and the appalling legacy of Ireland’s mother-and-baby homes.
