The Hidden Story of Dolours Price: A New True Crime Show on Hulu

Did you know that the conflict in Northern Ireland, known as The Troubles, ended just a few decades ago? It's still a sensitive topic, but a new series on Hulu is tackling it head-on. The show, called "Say Nothing, " focuses on a key figure from that time: Dolours Price. She was a member of the IRA, a group fighting for Irish independence. The series doesn't try to cover every detail of the conflict. Instead, it zooms in on Price's story and her surprising journey. Price was the first official female member of the IRA. She did all sorts of things, from robbing banks to helping free prisoners. But her biggest move was planning bombings in London. She and her sister planted four car bombs, injuring hundreds. After that, they were sent to a British men's prison and went on a 200-day hunger strike.

But Price's story doesn't end there. Later in life, she spoke out about something shocking. Some people she had driven to Ireland never returned. They were part of a group called the Disappeared, who were abducted and murdered by the IRA. Price wanted to tell the truth about what happened. The show is based on a book by Patrick Radden Keefe. It's a thriller because Price's story keeps changing, even after her death. It makes you question what you think you know about recent history.
