[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is st Patrick’s day a white holiday? I see black people drinking beer and wearing green. Are POCs also not allowed to celebrate Halloween (also from Ireland) or Valentine’s Day too?? What Trump is doing is wrong, but two wrongs don’t make a right. [/quote] OP didn't say that black people can't celebrate St. Patrick's Day. They said that if we can't have celebrations, or educational programming that celebrates or teaches about demographic groups, then St. Patrick's Day celebrations should be included in that. It's logical. It's also a good way to emphasize that this idea that, for example, boys in school can learn about and celebrate the success of the Women's suffrage movement, and white children can learn about and look up to Rosa Parks, just like POC can wear green.[/quote]
