About this listen
On the 'Parachute Candidate' podcast, Member of the European Parliament Maria Walsh believes the heart of understanding the good, the bad and the indifferent is - conversation. Join her as she speaks with people on issues impacting society and let's start a conversation.
My first conversation is with Mari Steed, the daughter of Josephine Bassett who lived within religious orders and institutions across Ireland during one of Ireland's most shameful histories. Mari was 2 when adopted by a family from Philadelphia and is one of more than two thousand vanished babies who were exported from Ireland to the US.
You will hear from our conversation the need to continue to unearth the untold experiences endured by thousands of women and their families as a result of the Magdalene Institutions. This conversation sheds light on the on-going advocacy work by Mari and many others. I am grateful to Mari for sharing her lived experience with us all.
