So disgusting how uneducated everyone is. Me and my Irish backpacker friends have been called “colonisers” because dumb fucking people don’t know the difference between the UK and Ireland. When this is our history, and even people in England who have Irish ancestors who get called colonisers when their families were forced out of Ireland too. Like educate yourselves!!!
Why don't our schools teach us this?? I never knew that the potato famine was because they straight up didn't allow Ireland to grow anything else other than potatoes? What the fuck?? I also didn't know that they paid Ireland to stop teaching Celtic. (according to Google, their original language)
So as I understand it, Ireland has always been famous for potatoes. Looking back, they were able to produce many other kinds of food but were only able to KEEP the potatoes as everything else was taken by the British. When the potato famine happened- they starved to death bc that was the only food they were able to keep. The British stood by and let it happen as they continued to take the food that could’ve sustained the Irish. Makes so much sense now. As an American, it was always just something we heard they were famous for bc it was the only thing that could grow there. Boy were we lied to! So technically there was a potato famine but it didn’t need to cause so much death and starvation the way it did
Eu adorava esses especiais da MTV Brasil, sou louco pra achar o álbum MTV da Madonna que passou em 2001 ou 2002 se não me engano... Infelizmente esses vídeos se perderam
I was made fun of a LOT when I put her on during high school. Thankfully I didn’t give a crap what other people thought I just kept on playing this amazing album (Surfacing and Afterglow are also amazing efforts).
Andrea só não era melhor que a Jackson que venceu nessa edição! Marquee é uma Cantriz completa...hj reina nos musicais! Assisti ela em RENT, antes do FAMA, em 1999 e me encantei com sua voz e seu talento! E no último sábado tive a oportunidade de vê-la no musical do Marcos Veras: Alguma Coisa Podre, uma coisa do outro mundo, de tão incrível!
