In this clip from 1977, Irish political activist Bernadette Devlin talks about standing up to the British and fighting for peace in Northern Ireland. While serving as a MP in the British parliament, Devlin famously slapped Home Secretary Reginald Maudling over his comments about 'Bloody Sunday'. On that day in 1972, 26 civil rights protesters and bystanders were shot by the British Army. For more classic clips, go to www.cbc.ca/arch...
