Before I forget, I wanted to wish everyone a happy St. Patrick's Day, a proud day for all white people all of whom will pretend to be Irish today.
For more go here, where you can learn that the largest St. Patrick's Day parade is held right here in NYC, and was started by Brittish soldiers in 1762.
UPDATE: Let me also take the time to recommend "How the Irish Became White" an excellent book about race and identity in the United States.
