I was recently talking with a Disqus friend about the 2003 film, The
Magdalene Sisters, about three young women in Ireland who were sent to
the infamous Magdalene Laundries, run by Ireland’s Catholic church. The
Republic of Ireland has traditionally been a Catholic country and has
experienced scandals involving the church’s treatment of women and
children. Ireland's Industrial School system was also administered by
Catholic priests and nuns.
