Dinner meeting at the Wantagh Inn located at 3264 Railroad Avenue in Wantagh New York 11793 (immediately beneath the Wantagh station on Babylon line of the Long Island Rail Road).
Topic: the Irish Famine Tribunal which will be held at Fordham Law on October 20, 2012. The Irish Famine Tribunal promises to be an historic scholarly event, the object of which is to assess the impact of the Irish Famine on the Irish population, and to examine its political, economic, cultural and physiological legacies, all within a legal framework.
We invited Niall MacGiollabhui and Owen Rodgers of the Irish Famine Tribunal to be our guests for the meeting. We will receive an introduction to the Great Hunger and learn more about what the Tribunal will entail.
Please bring $45 to cover the cost of dinner, which is a buffet with beer, wine and soda. The Wantagh Inn, incidentally, is a fine Irish restaurant with a great bar.
