Another tale lesser known about the sculptures we have in Ireland. Alex Pentek created the ultimate form of recognition with his sculpture to thank the Choctaw nation for donating everything they had to the Irish in times of famine.
Huge thanks to Alex Pentek for his time in making this film and also the National Sculpture Factory for allowing me to film there. Many thanks also to the following people for allowing me to use their images:
Drone footage; Brian Martin
Photography; Neil Danton, Red Power Media, Brian Martin.

An amazing piece of history and a beautiful sculpture to commemorate the kindness of the Choctaw nation, and of course top notch presentation and filming once again. Thanks Dave for introducing an aspect of the famine I knew nothing about. Encouraged further study me thinks.

What an awesome story of kindness by people who had so little and were so persecuted themselves! The sculpture looks nice too! 🙂

My poor video on the Kindred Spirits monument sadly did terrible :D Good to see more videos on it, I'd love to see it be more and more widely known. Alex came across brilliantly as well, great to hear the ideas behind the monument.

Dave. My wife and I are familiar with the story of the sculpture. It is a very important piece of our history. We got back from Ireland Tuesday 10th. Unfortunately we didn't make it up to Bailibouragh but still managed to put nearly 3k KMS on the rental car. Hopefully next year. I would love to do the WWW on a bike. We spent 4 days in Donegal and could have spent longer. We did everything we planned plus more. All the very best from Canada and thank you for covering this very important piece of history

I’m delighted you made it here Ian. I hope you had a great time and one day I hope you grace Bailieborough. Take care Ian and thanks again for tuning in. 👍🎥
