A colourful mural on Sráıd Brighton (Brighton Street, Falls at Broadway) from the organization Pobal.
“ar scáth a chéıle” is a shortened version of “Is ar scáth a chéıle a mhaıreann na daoıne”: it is in each other’s shadow (or, as here?, umbr(ell)a) that the people exist; figuratively “no man is an island” or as Dimitry put it in Dostoevsky’s The Brother Karamazov, “we are all responsible for all”.
