My parents both grew up during the 20s and 30s in Boston's Irish slum,South Boston...also known as "Southie".They were growing up long before black people arrived in Boston and the Irish were,*absolutely*,the n*****s of Boston.In fact,my father's older brother used to talk about routinely seeing signs saying "No Irish Need Apply" at many employment offices.
Do I want "reparations"? Nope! Do I *deserve* "reparations"? Nope!
