Smith, an Associate Professor in the English Department and Irish Studies Program at Boston College. His book\u00a0<i>Irish Magdalen Laundries and the Nation\u2019s\u00a0Architecture of Containment<\/i>, was praised by Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn as essential reading \u201cfor anyone interested in the fear and cruelty surrounding women\u2019s sexuality in the Ireland of the recent past.\u201d The Magdalen laundries were workhouses in which many Irish women and girls were effectively imprisoned because they were perceived to be a threat to the moral fiber of society. In 1993, a public scandal was triggered when the remains of 155 inmates, buried in unmarked graves on the property, were exhumed, cremated, and buried elsewhere in a mass grave. Smith\u2019s work with archival materials and survivors is, in Colum McCann\u2019s words, a \u201cbrilliant, art driven examination of a story or history, that needs to be told over and over and over again, lest it be forgotten to sleep into the ambient noise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smith serves on the Advisory Committee of Justice For Magdalenes Research (JFMR), the advocacy group that brought these institutions to the attention of the UN Committee Against Torture (UNCAT) in Geneva.<\/p>\n<p>James Smith\u2019s lecture (3\/7) \u201cIreland\u2019s Magdalene Laundries, Academic Advocacy and Restorative Justice\u201d is now online for public viewing.
