The Kindred Spirits sculpture in the town of Midleton, County Cork, Ireland. The sculpture was unveiled in June 2017 and celebrates the "kindred spirits" of the people of Ireland and the North American Native Choctaw Nation, who, in 1847, sent a large donation to Ireland to help during the Great Famine of 1845-1852, even though the Choctaw were suffering poverty and hardship themselves.
