  • President Message for June
    What a strange seven weeks it’s been. First, we consolidated our April and May meetings to an early May meeting, then our initial date for the Golf Outing was rained out (not to mention it seems to have rained every other day since!). So, our normal spring cadence has been thrown off. We’ll be getting back on track with our next meeting being this Friday, June 13th, at 8pm, that being the last meeting before oursummer hiatus.

  • Starving in a Sea of Plenty: The Fish Story That Whitewashes the Irish Famine
    Among the more persistent and insulting myths of the “Great Hunger” is the claim that the Irish “starved while surrounded by fish” because they were too ignorant or too stubborn to help themselves.  It’s a narrative repeated in history books, classrooms, and casual conversation—a defaming simplification that distorts the truth of what our ancestors endured.… Read more: Starving in a Sea of Plenty: The Fish Story That Whitewashes the Irish Famine
  • The Laden Table, an Irish Christmas Tradition
    Christmas is a time of tradition.  Every year, millions of Americans enact a tradition that few realize has its origins in Ireland and the mists of time: “the Laden Table.” In pre-Christian Celtic Ireland, hospitality was more than just good manners; it was actually written into the law.  Under Brehon Law, all households were obliged to… Read more: The Laden Table, an Irish Christmas Tradition
