Intergenerational trauma fuels the simmering anger that lies just beneath the surface. As Steven our Black Cab Tour driver puts it, it will take 100 years or. more for the pain to fade... providing that it all doesn't re-ignite. Buses driven into homes, fire bombings and multiple simultaneous car bombs... British army firing upon protestors, fatal hunger strikes... "the troubles" is such a euphemism. Highly recommend taking a Black Cab Tour if ever in Belfast. Its a grim tour for a grim city, that like all cities also has some epic aspects as well...titanic even. Long shot of the Titanic Experience ~ an impressive edifice with superb content on the Wollf and Harland shipyards of Belfast as well as that ship.
