Great job in getting the truth out Being 3rd generation Irish living in the US I've always known of the famine. But by reading on this page I have come to learn it really was a genocide that's been covered up by the British for decades
The British never stop amazing me when it comes to oppressing people through the centuries Now I know why my grandmother called their flag the Butchers Apron

Irish History deserves her rightful place shoulder to shoulder in equal standing with other Countries. Irish History deserves her History to be shown with the hard truth. Nobody has the right to whitewash her history.

A progressive step forward in ensuring remembrance of the past and the horrible crimes committed on Irish people. As a nation, we cannot possibly know where we are going unless we truly know where we have come from. best of luck with the Project!

It is way past time to tell the truth and remove such words as famine and great hunger. Also time to hold the British accountable for their genocide and war crimes against the Irish Race.
