OPEN LETTER TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND: Why don’t we know more about Ireland’s €2.4 Billion Military Exports?

The Sandwich Story at Bookville
Lisa Fingleton is an artist, filmmaker, writer and grower who was inspired by a BLT sandwich to illustrate the journey of one sandwich and all its ingredients, uncovering some surprising discoveries along the way.
