Martin McGuinness is a birthplace in County Derry, Ireland. Perhaps the house stood quiet before a boy left it to carry guns, then votes, then the weight of a shared government. Maybe his rooms still hold the shape of a man who broke rules until they became his bones.
Why this person is known: Sinn Féin politician and deputy First Minister (1950-2017)
