This poster was produced in late 1986 at the time of the first anniversary of the Anglo-Irish Agreement. An anti-Agreement rally by unionists at Belfast City Hall was again attended by approximately 200,000 people but unlike the previous year was followed by violence and two nights of rioting in loyalist areas across Northern Ireland.

Notes: National Museums NI

National Museums NI holds over a million objects in the collection, as well as this we manage the records and associated images for each object through a working database. The national collection has been almost 200 years in the making, and we recognise that thinking about collecting and collections has evolved over this time and continues to evolve. As a result, some of our records may contain language and views that we now consider offensive and unacceptable, for example, reflecting racist attitudes. We are committed to addressing these issues, and to reviewing and updating our records accordingly. Working with researchers, communities and academic partners we are learning more about the stories behind objects, and we are committed to sharing these with our audiences. We welcome feedback.
