This print captures a significant moment in history - the Security Protest Rally held in Newtownbutler, Fermanagh, in June 1980. The image showcases the determination and unity of the people as they gather to voice their concerns about security issues affecting their community.

With unwavering conviction, he demands that their demands be met or face dire consequences. The atmosphere depicted in this photograph is charged with emotion and resilience. It serves as a reminder of an era marked by political unrest and tension within Northern Ireland during the 1980s. The significance of this event extends beyond its immediate context; it symbolizes a struggle for justice and security that resonated with many communities across the country at that time.
