Queen Elizabeth IIs Silver Jubilee in 1977, marking the 25thanniversary of her reign, came after one of the bloodiest years of the Troubles, the sectarian conflict that ravaged Northern Ireland for three decades from 1969 to 1998. For the first time in eleven years, the Queen decided to visit Belfast, then one of the most dangerous cities not only in the United Kingdombut in the whole of Europe. Unionists and Loyalists, loyal to the Crown and determined to maintain Northern Irelands status within the United Kingdom, felt reassured. On the other hand, Nationalist and Republican groups saw her visit as a further insult and a symbol of British imperialism.Belfast, 1977Civil Rights protesters from Derry meeting the Paras during a peaceful protest near Magilligan Prison, just a week before Bloody Sunday, photograph by Eamon Melaugh, 1971. Source: The Museum of Free DerryQueen Elizabeth IIs visit to Northern Ireland as part of her Silver Jubilee Tour came at a particularly tense time. Indeed, the early months of 1977 were a turning point in the history of the Troubles. 1976 had been the second bloodiest year in the history of the Troubles with 308 victims, the vast majority, 220, were civilians.As McKittrick & McVea note in Making Sense of the Troubles, Loyalist violence (violence perpetrated by Loyalist paramilitary groups determined that Northern Ireland should remain part of the United Kingdom) fell sharply, going from 127 killings in 1976 to just 28 in 1977. In the five years prior to 1977 the loyalist toll was 590; in the five years from 1977 on it was only 84. One of the reasons for this was the appointment of Roy Mason (1925-2014) as Secretary of State for Northern Ireland in September 1976.Women of the Derry Womens Action Committee protesting against internment in Waterloo Place, Derry, 1971-72. Source: The Museum of Free DerryDetermined to defeat the Irish Republican Army (IRA), whose members Mason believed were nothing less than terrorists, as well as Loyalist paramilitary groups, he immediately made it clear that the British would never withdraw from Northern Ireland. As a result, many reassured Loyalists began to move away from violence.Masons security and political policies for Northern Ireland were based on the three-part strategy introduced by his predecessor, Merlyn Reese (1920-2006): normalization, Ulsterization (also known as the primacy of police) and criminalization. The only way to achieve a normalization of the situation in Northern Ireland, that is, to reduce the level of violence and the death toll, was to cause an Ulsterization of the conflict by recruiting the men of the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) and Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR) locally and reducing the number of British soldiers killed and wounded.The third part of the strategy, criminalization, involved the abolition of special category status for Republican prisoners, who would then be considered ordinary, rather than political, prisoners.Street party to celebrate the Silver Jubilee in Lynwood Chase, Bracknell, photograph by Chris Mitchell, 1977. Source: Wikimedia CommonsIn May 1977, the loyalist United Unionist Action Council (UUAC) launched a major strike to pressure the British government into a tougher security policy and restore majority rule, that is, devolved government in Northern Ireland under a system of simple majority rule. As gangs of Ulster Defence Association (UDA) men appeared on the streets of Belfast threatening shopkeepers, blocking roads, and hijacking vehicles, the strike quickly became known as Paisleys strike, after Ian Paisley (1926-2014), then leader of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). In 1977, after eight years of conflict, Northern Ireland was still one of the most dangerous and militarized areas in Europe. So were Belfast and Derry/Londonderry, which Queen Elizabeth visited in August.The Silver JubileeHer Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh in Australia in 1954.

She was a 25-year-old mother of two when her father, George VI (1895-1952), died at Sandringham House on February 6, 1952 at the age of 56. In 1977, thousands of people gathered throughout the UK and Commonwealth to celebrate her reign, as well as her birthday on April 21.The trip to Northern Ireland was part of a major three-part tour of the Commonwealth, which took Queen Elizabeth and her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (1921-2021), to Scotland in May and then to Wales and Northern Ireland. As the official website of the British Royal Family notes, No other Sovereign had visited so much of Britain in the course of just three months; the six jubilee tours in the UK and Northern Ireland covered 36 counties. They also traveled to Western Samoa, Fiji, Tonga, New Zealand, Australia, Tasmania, Papua New Guinea, the British West Indies (BWI), and finally Canada.Belfast Lough, Northern Ireland, photograph by K. Mitch Hodge. Source: UnsplashOn the morning of August 10, HMY Britannia, the royal yacht in service from 1954 to 1997, dropped anchor in Belfast Lough to a 21-gun salute. It was the Queens first visit to Northern Ireland in eleven years. In 1966, just before the Troubles broke out, she had traveled to Belfast to open a new bridge. As the royal limousine made its way down Great Victoria Street, a 17-year-old nationalist boy from west Belfast threw a concrete block at the car, denting the bonnet.In 1977, while Prince Philip met the workers of a local shipyard, the Harland and Wolff, Queen Elizabeth made only two appearances during her 38-hour visit to Northern Ireland. One at Hillsborough Castle, the other at the New University in Coleraine. On August 10, Queen Elizabeth II then traveled by helicopter from Belfast Lough to Hillsborough Castle, where she was greeted by a crowd of schoolchildren waving Union Jacks.Mary McAleese in Phoenix, photograph by Liam Hughes, 2008. Source: Wikimedia CommonsIt was reportedly the first time in her 25-year reign that she resorted to traveling by helicopter to avoid possible ambushes. Security was stepped up at Hillsborough Castle, a late-18th century Georgian country house in the north-west of County Down, which has served as the official residence of the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland since 1972 and as the British monarchs when visiting Northern Ireland. British soldiers could be seen patrolling the grounds outside Hillsborough Castle while Queen Elizabeth inspected a guard of honor made up of members of the UDR, the infantry regiment of the British Army formed in 1970 and active until 1992, when it was amalgamated with the Royal Irish Rangers to form the Royal Irish Regiment.33 years later, in December 2005, Queen Elizabeth met Irish President Mary McAleese, the first President of the Republic of Ireland to be born in Northern Ireland, in the Hillsboroughs Red Room.The Speech in ColeraineBelfast, Northern Ireland, photograph by K. Mitch Hodge. Source: UnsplashOn the night of August 10, the Royal Yacht sailed from Belfast Lough and anchored off the north coast at Portrush. From there, Queen Elizabeth traveled once again by helicopter to the New University of Ulster, some 60 miles north of Belfast.On what was to be the last day of her Jubilee visit around the United Kingdom, she told her audience that it had been eleven years since she had last been there, but during much of that time we have watched events with deep concern and sadness. No one could remain unmoved by the violence and the grief that follows it. But we have also watched with admiration the fortitude and resilience with which the challenge has been met. The sufferings here have evoked sympathy and concern throughout the world and nowhere more than in the rest of the United Kingdom. To see such conflict taking place within our country emphasizes the clear and continuing responsibility for us all to bring back peace and stability to this community.The car used by Queen Elizabeth during her 1954 tour of Australia. Source: National Museum of AustraliaBy reassuring the Northern Irish Protestant community of Northern Irelands place within the United Kingdom, within our country, and by describing the people of Northern Ireland as one community, Queen Elizabeth was achieving a double objective. On the one hand, she was winking at the loyalist and unionist community who had made it clear that there would be unrest if the Queens visit to Northern Ireland was canceled at the last minute. On the other, she was echoing what many thinkers and writers, including Belfast-born Robert McLiam Wilson, would later argue. Namely, that the people of Northern Ireland are neither wholly Irish nor wholly British, that they are members of a unique community that is ultimately Northern Irish.Violence is always senseless and wrong Queen Elizabeth continued, adding that if this community is to survive and prosper people with different beliefs and aspirations must live and work together in friendship and forgiveness. There is no place here for old fears and attitudes born of history, no place for blame for what is passed.Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, Princess Margaret with American President Jimmy Carter, Giulio Andreotti, and Pierre Trudeau among the others in London, 1977. Source: Wikimedia CommonsAnd despite the threats of the IRA and the bloodshed on the streets of Belfast just a few days before her visit, Queen Elizabeth said that when she had the opportunity to meet men and women from all walks of life, including many who have been directly affected by violence, she saw hopeful signs of reconciliation and understanding. Policemen and soldiers have told me of the real cooperation they are receiving. I have sensed a common bond and a shared hope for the future.She concluded her speech by saying that the aim of all, government and people, must be to turn into reality our hopes for a peaceful and stable future and a better life for all. I believe the opportunity is there to be grasped. I look forward to the day when we may return to enjoy with the people of Northern Ireland some of the better and happier times so long awaited and so richly deserved.IRA leaders (from left to right: Martin McGuinness, Daith Conaill, Sen MacStiofin, Seamus Twomey) holding a press conference in the Bogside in Derry after Operation Demetrius.

As the Troubles continued, the Queen did not visit Northern Ireland at all during the 1980s. It was not until June 1991 that the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh finally traveled to the armys Thiepval Barracks in Lisburn, before holding a garden party at Hillsborough where they met the families of some of the victims.The royal couple returned to Northern Ireland three more times before the turn of the century, in 1993, 1995, and 1997. In June 2012, long after the official end of the Troubles with the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in April 1998 and 35 years after the Silver Jubilee celebrations, the Queen returned to Belfast, and on the final day of her visit, she shook hands with former IRA commander Martin McGuinness (1950-2017) at the Lyric Theatre.Queen Elizabeth, a SymbolAboriginal artist Vincent Namatjira humorously portrays himself alongside Queen Elizabeth in The Royal Tour, highlighting the Aboriginal perspective on such a controversial figure as the British monarch, 2020.

For heavily armed Republican groups like the Provisional IRA, she was a symbol of occupation and imperialism.Republicans and members of Sinn Fin welcomed her by taking to the streets of Belfast. Some were photographed holding a banner with the slogan: Queen of Death, 69-77 1,800 dead. Anti-monarchist graffiti, reading Stuff the Jubilee, appeared on walls and fences in Catholic neighborhoods. Some of the most tense areas of Belfast were eerily empty, except for soldiers patrolling or crouching in doorways. Buses had been diverted. On the other hand, for Unionists and Protestants, Queen Elizabeths decision to include Northern Ireland and Belfast in her Commonwealth tour was a reaffirmation of the Crowns support and presence in Northern Ireland. They welcomed her by draping their homes and streets in Union Jacks.Queen Elizabeth presenting the 1966 World Cup to Bobby Moore, captain of the England team on July 30 at Wembley Stadium, 1966. Source: Wikimedia CommonsA contingent of some 32,000 regular and reserve troops and police officers were deployed on the streets of Belfast. Troops with dogs trained to sniff out explosives swept the grounds of the New University of Ulster in Coleraine, where Queen Elizabeth finally made her short speech. The timing of the Queens visit was also highly symbolic. The two-day trip coincided with two important anniversaries in the recent history of Northern Ireland, turning points in the evolution of the Northern Ireland conflict. The first was the 6th anniversary of Operation Demetrius in 1971, commonly known as internment without trial when hundreds of Catholics suspected of involvement with the IRA were arrested en masse, taken to the newly built Long Kesh prison near Lisburn, subjected to in depth interrogation, and held for days without trial.Queen Elizabeths visit to Northern Ireland also coincided with the 8th anniversary of the Battle of the Bogside and the (un)official start of the Troubles. On August 12, 1969, Protestant loyalist members of the Apprentice Boys marched through Derry/Londonderry and came dangerously close to the Bogside, a Catholic stronghold. Local Catholics saw the annual parade of the Apprentice Boys as an insult. They began to taunt the marchers. The Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC), the police force of Northern Ireland, tried to push the rioters back and moved into the Bogside firing CS gas, the first time it had been used in the United Kingdom. Loyalists followed suit, smashing the windows of Catholic homes. Two days of rioting followed, spreading south into Belfast. At 5 pm on August 14, the British Army arrived on the streets of Derry, marking the official start of the Troubles.A Bloody JubileeNot just Queen Elizabeth: the British punk rock band The Clash (picture here is Mick Jones) traveled to Belfast to begin their 1977 tour, 1978. Source: Wikimedia CommonsThe IRA made its presence felt during Queen Elizabeths trip to Belfast, according to a New York Times article published at the time, although it did not carry out any attacks against the Queen or her staff. IRA men and women, wearing black leather jackets and black berets, attended the funeral of 16-year-old Paul Jason McWilliams, a member of the Fianna, the junior wing of the IRA, at Milltown Cemetery in Belfast.McWilliams, who had recently been arrested for rioting, had been temporarily released from St Patricks Training School to attend his grandmothers funeral. His family was from Ballymurphy, an area dominated in the 1970s by army bases and fortifications, as McWilliams brother recalled in 2012, an area full of constant armed foot patrols and raids on peoples homes. McWilliams was shot dead near his home in Springhill Avenue on August 9.On July 13, 1977, the Queen and Prince Philip arrived in Hull onboard the Royal Yacht Britannia, 1977. Source: Wikimedia CommonsSinn Fin reported at the time that two eyewitnesses said that McWilliams was shot in the back as he tried to get through a gap in a fence and that British soldiers had not warned him, contrary to their claims after the killing. Within hours of McWilliams death, an IRA sniper killed a soldier from the same unit responsible for his death, the Third Light Infantry Battalion, in retaliation. Once the Queens visit to Northern Ireland was finally over, Prince Philip is reported to have patted the Queens hand and said: There now, its over. Unless they sink the Britannia were safe. The official website of the British Royal Family estimates that during the 1977 Silver Jubilee Commonwealth tour the Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh travelled 56,000 miles, mostly on Her Majestys Yacht Britannia.The Coronation Theatre, Westminster Abbey: A Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, painting by Ralph Heimans, 2012. Source: National Portrait GalleryIn 1977, Queen Elizabeth chose Belfast and Northern Ireland as the final stop on her Silver Jubilee tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her reign. It was a risky decision. 1976 had been one of the bloodiest years of the Troubles, and her two-day trip fell on two important anniversaries in the recent history of Northern Ireland. If the Catholic community and Republican groups, such as the IRA and the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) saw her presence as a further insult, the Protestant community felt reassured by the monarchys determination not to abandon them. Queen Elizabeths visit highlighted the sectarian nature of the conflict that was to ravage the province for another 20 years.

Dolours and Marian Price were involved in Irish republicanism during the decades-long conflict that became known as the Troubles. After the two sisters joined the IRA in the early 1970s, they were soon charged for their involvement in the 1973 IRA bombings in London. Whilst imprisoned, they went on a hunger strike that lasted over 200 days. The Price sisters were also part of the Unknowns, a secret unit responsible for many disappearances during the Troubles, including that of Jean McConville.The Price Sisters: Irish Republicanism Runs in Their BloodDolours and Marian Price pictured at a civil-rights march, 1972. Source: The Irish TimesAndytown, or Andersonstown, is a suburb in the western part of Northern Irelands capital city, Belfast. Nestled beneath two hills that perch high above the city, Andersonstown is a predominantly Catholic, nationalist area of the city. Though it is now a family-friendly, peaceful part of Belfast, it once teemed with paramilitary activity during the Troubles. It was in this suburb that Dolours and Marian Price were reared by a family entrenched in Irish republican ideology.Dolours Price, born in 1950, and Marian Price, born in 1954, were exposed to Irish republicanism from an early age. Their father was a staunch Irish republican and former member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA). Likewise, their mother (and grandmother) were part of the all-female faction of the IRA, the Cumann na mBan. Bridie Dolan, aunt to the Price sisters, lived with the family, and she, too, was a faithful Irish republican. In her twenties, she lost her eyesight and her hands when she accidentally dropped the explosives she was handling for the IRA.The girls grew up hearing stories about their parents taking part in bombings and other paramilitary activities, fostering their desire to follow in their family members footsteps. The sisters decided from an early age that they wouldnt stand on the sidelines of the republican cause but would instead take direct action for a united Ireland.Civil Rights ActivistsInjured civil rights activist at a protest in Londonderry/Derry, 1968. Source: Irish TimesAfter attending school in west Belfast, including a teacher-training course, the Price sisters decided they would make more of a difference in their community if they took part in political activism. In 1969, they participated in the Belfast to Londonderry/Derry civil rights march, where they were attacked by loyalists during the Burntollet Bridge incident.The Burntollet Bridge illustrated the political and civil unrest that had begun months prior in Northern Ireland. Marchers protested gerrymandering, or the manipulation of electoral districts. They called for freedom of speech and fair representation in jobs and housing in Londonderry/Derry, as Catholics were often discriminated against compared to Protestants.However, during the march, activists were attacked by Ulster loyalists. Many Catholics felt that the police force in Northern Ireland, the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC), did not protect the marchers from loyalist attackers, furthering the already ignited tensions between nationalist and unionist communities.The Price family was familiar with the RUC, as the force had raided the Price home before due to perceived IRA connections. The Burntollet Bridge incident was a turning point for the two women, inspiring them to take up arms alongside the IRA.Crazy PricesDolours and Marian Price standing outside 10 Downing Street in London, c. 1972. Source: The IndependentTwo years later, in 1971, Dolours Price became the first woman to gain full membership in the IRA. Her membership came on the heels of the reintroduction of internment, a policy by which people, mostly republicans, were imprisoned without a trial. This policy influenced many young people to become volunteers for the IRA, prepared to lose their lives or commit acts of terrorism for Irish independence. Marian followed soon after.The Price sisters walked the streets of Belfast armed, sometimes hiding rifles under their coats for potential confrontations with the British Army. They moved explosives for the IRA, using their charming, self-assured personalities to get through British Army checkpoints. Locally, they were known as the Crazy Prices. The sisters were also involved in high-profile paramilitary activity.Damage after IRA bombings in London, 1973.

A bomb exploded in a car outside the Old Bailey, the Central Criminal Court in London, and one outside of Westminster. The city had been warned before the bombs exploded, though over 200 people were still injured, and one person died of a heart attack. The IRA was behind the bombing, and Dolours herself took responsibility for the campaign. She believed that bombing London would make more of a statement rather than bombing Belfast, so she, along with Marian and other IRA volunteers, planned the attack.The group managed to steal four cars in Belfast and refit them with English license plates, shipping them on a ferry across the sea. Bombs were planted in all four cars, and they were all set to explode before 3 pm. However, an informer within the IRA had tipped off the British police, and the authorities were prepared to thwart the attack. In total, two bombs exploded before the police could detonate them.The IRA volunteers were found at Londons Heathrow Airport, ready to board a flight to Dublin. In total, eight volunteers, including the Price sisters, were convicted and received double life sentences.A Hunger for IrelandBobby Sands and fellow prisoners at Long Kesh prison in Northern Ireland, early 1970s. Source: Bobby Sands TrustOnce imprisoned, the Price sisters decided to go on a hunger strike. Throughout Irish history, Irish prisoners had used fasting and starvation as a form of protest and as an example of their willingness to die for Ireland. In the early 20th century, Irish and British suffragettes alike used hunger strikes to protest the lack of womens rights during the suffragette movement.In 1981, in the midst of the Troubles, Bobby Sands and nine others died on hunger strike as they worked to put pressure on Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her government. Years before, though, Dolours and Marian had begun their own hunger strike, demanding to be transferred to a prison in Northern Ireland and to be recognized as political prisoners.Due to public outcry over the sisters being fed against their will in prison, the British government discontinued their force-feedings, though the two continued with their hunger strike for more than 200 days. They were eventually transferred to Armagh prison in Northern Ireland. Dolours spent six years in Armagh and was eventually released because of her physical deterioration. Likewise, Marian was released in 1980 due to her health decline.The UnknownsJean McConville, one of the Disappeared, pictured alongside family, photograph by Doubleday. Source: The Wall Street JournalDolours belonged to the Unknowns, a secret unit in the IRA, and it is believed Marian was also part of the elusive group. The unit was responsible for a number of disappearances during the Troubles, including that of Jean McConville. McConville was a mother of ten who went missing in Belfast in 1972.After being seen helping a British soldier and with rumors spreading that she was an informer, McConville was abducted by the IRA. It is believed Dolours was one of the volunteers who aided in her disappearance, driving her across the Irish border where she was held captive and later murdered. However, it is also rumored that Marian was the one to kill McConville after Dolours had confided to a number of people that Marian was the murderer. McConvilles body was found in 2003 on Shelling Hill Beach in County Louth in the Republic of Ireland.That same year, Dolours was part of the kidnapping and disappearance of Seamus Wright after it was discovered he was a double agent for the British Army. Price drove him and Kevin McKee, a teenager who was also discovered to be an informer, across the border. Both were executed and secretly buried. In 1999, the IRA admitted that it had murdered nine out of the 16 Disappeared, people who had been abducted, murdered, and interred in remote locations by republicans during the Troubles. The remains of three of the victims have never been found.The Price Sisters Lives After the Good Friday AgreementTaoiseach and Fianna Fail leader Bertie Ahern and British Prime Minister Tony Blair signing the Good Friday Agreement, 1998. Source: Ireland.ieAfter she was released, Dolours moved to Dublin, where she worked as a journalist and married the actor Stephen Rea. When the Good Friday Agreement was signed in 1998, both sisters criticized it, believing the deal did not justify the suffering the people of Belfast went through during the Troubles. In the early 2000s, she contributed to the Belfast Project.Based out of Boston College in Massachusetts, the project was an oral history archive intended to document peoples experiences during the Troubles. The director of the project was Ed Moloney, an Irish reporter who had extensive experience interviewing paramilitaries. Dolours was one of more than 40 paramilitaries who were interviewed. She detailed her experiences within the IRA, particularly her participation in disappearances. She revealed that she had driven Joe Lynskey, an IRA volunteer who was caught having an affair with the wife of another IRA member, across the border to his death.Dolours was also known for speaking out against Gerry Adams. Adams is an Irish politician, civil rights activist, and former president of Sinn Fein, a democratic socialist party present in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. He was also instrumental during the peace process. Dolours disclosed Adams as her commanding officer in the IRA, though he adamantly denies this claim. Until her death in 2013, Dolours supported a united Ireland.A woman leaves flowers at the entrance of the Massereene Army Base.

She was charged with supporting an act of terrorism by providing an object for the purpose of a terrorist attack. She was later charged with supporting an illegal organization after presenting at a rally in Londonderry/Derry, which commemorated the Easter Rising. In 2011, she was imprisoned but was released in 2013 after protests.In late 2024, Marian spoke out against her alleged involvement in the disappearance of Jean McConville. In the TV adaptation of Say Nothing, journalist Patrick Radden Keefes book detailing the Troubles, Marian is depicted murdering Jean McConville. She has threatened to sue Disney+ over the depiction, saying that she had nothing to do with the disappearance or murder. However, Keefe supports the claim that Marian murdered McConville.The Price sisters were complicated and controversial figures, representing not only the cost of the Troubles in Ireland as a whole but also of families caught in the crossfires of the conflict.

Video game remakes are potentially hotter than they've ever been right now. Recent modernizations of iconic titles like Resident Evil 2 and Final Fantasy 7 have shown that there's still a market for them, and that there always will be. As a result, the rumor mill is constantly buzzing about which game is getting the treatment next, and one possible upcoming remake sounds like one that we've waited quite a while for.
