2007 Philadelphia St. Patrick's Celebration

[KatyKane]

The true spirit of the Philadelphia Irish rang true in this video. Watching it made all the more homesick. Praying to be able to come home for a visit and see this year's parade live & in person.

God Bless.

Love the Irish,Catholic racism esposed by the KKEeystone division.And you got the balls to talk about the Orange Order.The order has members of all races.We aren't fascists like the bigots of the AOH.

I apologize for not jumping on this. Don't know how I missed it. Not long ago, the Irish were the targets of racism. They burned down our churches and they said we were monkeys. So I just can't understand how any Irish American could fail to see how much we have in common with the experience of African Americans. As for the video, we shoot what we see. People from ALL walks of life - not just white people named O'Brien and Ryan and Sheehan and Meehan - attend Irish events. That's a good thing.

This might seem a bit out of line to some people but why on earth are their so many Black people in this video? Actually why are there any, they are not Irish. They have plenty of their own celebrations, why do they have to attend ours?

Great job as usual, Jeff!
