This St Patrick’s Day why not take a look at my lists of Irish creators and media and find something you enjoy?
If there’s someone or something you think I’m missing or want to highlight, especially if they create art as Gaeilge or about marginalised Irish experiences, feel free to share!
for the last time. Ireland’s Christianization was peaceful. There was no genocide. The “snakes” St Patrick drove out were not pagans. Paganism still existed long after St Patrick left, and those that converted did so because they wanted Eternal Life and a God that loved them.
Remember… I am Irish to my core. People know us for having good fun, and that’s a beautiful thing to bring around the world. — Caitríona Balfe, 2 July 2022 ☘️
