OVER the last week or 10 days, our past — the history we cannot escape — has spoken loudly and occasionally with lethal force. It has, as it so often does, divided societies and there hardly be a
better example of dangerous division than the carnage unleashed in Paris
by disaffected, deranged French citizens who also happened to be Muslim
extremists.
History has also offered this society another opportunity — the Mother and Baby Homes Inquiry— to achieve a catharsis through what may be a shaming and horrifying process, one dependent on co-operation and truthful testimony.
