Nobel PEACE Prize Winners Corrigan-Maguire, Mairead (b. Jan. 27, 1944, Belfast, N.Ire.), Northern Irish social worker who, with Betty Williams, founded the Community of Peace People, also known as the Peace People Organization, a grassroots movement of both Roman Catholic and Protestant citizens dedicated to ending the sectarian strife in Ulster. For their work the two women shared the 1976 Nobel Prize for Peace. Corrigan-Maguire was from her youth a member of the Legion of Mary, a lay Catholic welfare organization, and through it she became deeply involved in social work among children and teenagers in various Catholic neighbourhoods of Belfast. She was stirred to act against the the growing violence in Northern Ireland after witnessing in August 1976 an incident in which a car being driven by an Irish Republican Army (IRA) terrorist went out of control when the IRA man was shot by British troops; the car struck and killed three children of Corrigan-Maguire's sister. Betty Williams was also a witness. Within days each woman had publicly denounced violence and called for mass opposition to it. Marches of Catholic and Protestant women, numbering in the thousands, were organized, and shortly afterward the

22. Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Mairead Corrigan Quotes, links and short biography of mairead corrigan Maguire from Ireland who wasawarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1976 for efforts to end the violence in her http://www.peaceheroes.com/PeaceHeroes/maireadcorrigan.htm

Mairead Corrigan Maguire "Everyday there are people in our world that do absolutely amazing things. People of all ages are very capable of doing tremendous, courageous things in spite of their fear." A description of Mairead Corrigan Maguire written by Joan Baez: "The breath of God ran through her like a fair summer breeze. She was a smile. She was a prayer. She was endlessly brave, going into the streets and homes of the "the enemy" unarmed and with cheerful countenance. No evil could envelop her or even touch her. I'm sure she is all those things still. She will hate to read this, because she is also self-effacing, like some other saints. God bless you, Mairead Corrigan. And God bless the brave women of Ireland who, for a brief but exceptional moment in time, waged mass nonviolent warfare in one of the most violent countries in the world." (excerpted from Baez' autobiography, And A Voice To Sing With) In 1976, Mairead Corrigan and Betty Williams and a journalist called Ciaran McKeown organized a series of peace marches in Northern Ireland after three children of Corrigan's sister Anne were killed by a gunman's getaway car. Tens of thousands turned out. Catholics and Protestants marched together.

25. Mairead Corrigan Maguire see clearly because of the wounds of violence and division, mairead offers a Thisbiographical essay about Máiread corrigan Maguire was excerpted from Dear s http://www.peacepeople.com/MaireadByJohnDear.htm

The Peace People Máiread Corrigan Maguire by John Dear, S.J. "If we want to reap the harvest of peace and justice in the future, we will have to sow seeds of nonviolence, here and now, in the present." Along the busy Lisburn Road in war-ravaged Belfast, Northern Ireland, stands a wee house dedicated to peace. A bright yellow banner hangs outside the second-floor window: "Campaign for a Gun-Free Northern Ireland." Inside, ordinary women and men, young and old, believers from all faiths and nonbelievers, carry on a steady, persistent witness for peace and justice. Pictures of peacemakers and heroes, such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Gandhi, and Aung San Suu Kyi (the Nobel Peace Prize winner from Burma), line the house walls, an ever-present "cloud of witnesses" watching over their shoulders. One picture in particular catches my attention. Above the mantelpiece in the spacious front room hangs a large picture from a 1976 Belfast demonstration featuring thousands of women with banners calling for an end to violence and a new day of peace for Northern Ireland. While living and working in Northern Ireland in 1997-98, I used to visit Peace House and look in amazement at that picture. Belfast, 1976! The height of "The Troubles." From 1969 to 1998, over thirty-four hundred people were killed in a brutal war stemming from British colonial interests, revolutionary republicanism, and age-old, oppressive religious bigotry and fanaticism. But after a year of tumultuous political negotiations, a breakthrough settlement was reached on Good Friday 1998, bringing Northern Ireland to the Easter dawn of peace. Suddenly, what was once deemed unimaginable, unthinkable, indeed impossible, is now indeed possible and probable. A new future stands on the horizon of Ireland -a vision of peace.

home current issue past stories about The Prism ... other sites Mairead Corrigan Inspires Struggle, Hope for Irish Peace by Kathy Worboys T he airport was crowded on the humid mid-August day and crammed tight with freckled, fair-skinned children, burnt and peeling from weeks in the sun. Wall-to-wall people left little room for movement, hardly enough for breathing. We had been in this same position exactly six weeks earlier, though that had been a happier time. It had been a day of anticipation and excitement, a day when a young girl stepped off an airplane and entered a brand new world. She had arrived to cheers and greetings from a family she had never seen, and was now preparing to depart, amidst tears and prayers and promises, from a family she had learned to call her own. The program that brought Joan to us is called Project Children. It is a program which gives people like Joan Rooney a chance to see the world as it should be, and which gives people like me the chance to see the world as it can be. We cried that day at the airport. We promised to write, and to include her in our prayers. We watched the plane taxi down the runway, and then we went home: home to our backyard pool and our white picket fence, home, where we could lock the doors, and retreat into safety. Later that night, I turned on the news and came face-to-face with a close-up of Joan, crying, as she returned to her own family. I cried with her that day, for all of them. While we sat, safe and secure in front of our television, they were re-entering a world of dirt and grime and guns, and anything but safety. Yet through it all we were left with the hope that people like Joan would strive for a time when they could fulfill the prophecies of a card she left for us. It read, "You helped us experience the meaning of peace, true brotherly love, and life without fear. You helped us become the hope for a future peace in Northern Ireland."
