@rtenews: The 2026 Dublin Rose, Suad Mooge, is urging young people to “speak up” if they experience racist abuse. It comes after Ms Mooge, a medical scientist, was subjected to racist comments online after she was selected for the long-running festival earlier this year. At today’s Rose of Tralee launch, she said the abuse never deterred her from taking part. 📲#RoseofTralee #dublin #ireland
