Description

In a classroom, students learn about the history of voting equality. One student, after questioning why that history matters today, has a dream about travelling back in time to witness the power of protest, and the passing of the Representation of the People Act.

This project brought together students from schools in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, to explore themes of citizenship, identity and sovereignty through the lens of the past.
