A city still divided into Protestant and Catholic neighborhoods
separated by high walls topped by barb wire
Political murals and memorials for those killed in the troubles ... That's the word that is used for the tumultuous times - the troubles, doesn't seem like a strong enough word to even come close to what went on.
Flags hung everywhere to indicate which neighborhood you were in - Catholic or Protestant
It was eye opening, scary, hard to imagine, and made us appreciate the peace we enjoy everyday in America.
