Joe Graham, Civil Rights Veteran and Political Activist, publisher of Rushlight The Belfast Magazine, Belfast's Oldest Historical Publication.

Few knew that as well as publishing the Rushlight I also edited and published the "Ardoyne Freedom Fighter " during the early troubles, plus "The Vindicator" for Clonard area, plus "Scale" for Ballymurphy.. and in the late 1960's "The Pike" the voice of republican Belfast who says the sword is not at least as mighty as the sword. ?

History gives us a kind of chart and we dare not surrender even a small Rushlight in the darkness. The hasty reformist who does not remember the past will find himself condemned to repeat it
