Mary Ann McCracken, the arguably more influential sister of Henry Joy McCracken and successful business woman in her own right.

Born into a liberal family, she received the same education as her brother and was a committed abolitionist and anti poverty campaigner.

After the Irish rebellion of 1798 failed, liberalism died in Belfast. She loathed in her late years, 'I am both ashamed and sorry to think that Belfast has so far degenerated in regard to the Anti-Slavery Cause'.

However, she could be found on the docks, at 88 years old, handing flyers to people boarding boats to the USA , decrying their continued use of slavery.

As well, she founded the Ladies Committee which sought to build schools for the poor and needy; and championed gender equality in education. Also, the Harp society, which helped revive Ireland's traditional music.

We are Anne's seventh generation, if more people tried to build a world suitable for the future generations, and not just their own, perhaps we wouldn't be in the mess that we're in. Let's be the first generation that actually learns from history.

I am here protecting our city's most important statue

One that represents pride in your home and repentance of your past
..and a magic salmon that's probably more Nordic than Irish
