“The World According to Doctrine” — Evil Recycles

What happened to Irish-American Heritage?

Now, it’s become Women’s History month; and Irish-American Heritage has been relegated to a secondary position; and in recent Institutional materials like the AARP 2023 calendar – only Women’s History Month is mentioned for March. In a sort of bureaucratic ethnic purge: Irish-Americans are now categorized as “Non-Hispanic whites” – and in spite of it being recognized as demeaning to be categorized by what you are not — institutions and government authorities refuse to change this act of bias. And if you offer the argument that this is a petty complaint: try doing the same with African-American Heritage Month. Or try categorizing Hispanics as “Non-Irish whites,” using “Men” and “Non-Men” as gender category descriptions, or designating “blacks” as “Non-whites” — and see what happens. You can begin to understand why we’re a society without questioning, and without debate: One Thought – One Taught – One Voice – One Choice.
