Joe Clarke was just 19 when arrested in 1971. Tortured by the British Army & RUC, deprived of sleep, food & water, handcuffed, hooded & thrown out of a helicopter. All he ever wanted to hear was sorry. He died three years ago today with no apology from the British Government. RIP

Graphic going around promising nationalist protests at SF offices across the north with a list of addresses. The addresses are not Sinn Féin offices. One is listed as the Woodstock Road! The people stirring this up are not of our community.

At 7:55pm on 5 June 1976 death squad arrived at his home and shot him three times. Colm was not initially claimed as a Republican activist in the tense environment of the time. He is buried a short distance away from the New Republican Plot in Milltown Cemetery.
