Bobby Sands  

Definición

  • Bobby Sands, born on March 9, 1954, in North Belfast, Northern Ireland, rose to international prominence in 1981 when he embarked on a fatal hunger strike while imprisoned for activities related to the Irish Republican Army's (IRA) armed campaign against British occupation. Sands's rough childhood, which included several assaults by unionist paramilitaries and local Protestant gangs, led to his decision to volunteer for the IRA in 1972.
