You'll find Vincent's election leaflet as a Hunger Strikes candidate in the 1981 general election in the archive.
in our January activist interview for the Irish Left Archive Podcast, we spoke to left activist, Vincent Doherty.
We discuss his politicisation growing up in Derry; his role in the Derry Republican movement and perspective on the Officials and the divisions which led to the formation of the IRSP; his work with the IMG and Troops Out Movement in England; joining Peoples' Democracy and his central role in the H-Blocks campaign during the 1981 hunger strikes; his move towards Sinn Féin and the influence of People’s Democracy; and his perspective on the contemporary left in Ireland.
