We are all slaves now if you listen to the conspiracy theorists.

"Many of the white slaves were brought from Ireland, where the law held that it was no more sin to kill an Irishman than a dog or any other brute."

Brehon Law used to enable rich people to murder poor people as long as they could pay recompense to the family if so, no charges were brought.

My wife's family are Irish and she told me that when her grandad Gerry was alive, he couldn't go to certain pubs in essex as they said "No blacks or Irish" on the door lol, or maybe not lol.

In America, its almost akin to brainwashing. The History classes in junior high and high school teach you one-side of American history.
A great book to read about America is, "A Peoples History of the United States" written by Howard Zinn. It really sheds light on the side of American history they do not teach you in school (for any of your UKers interested in American History). ;D

A good leftist tome.

I did not that feeling at all. But to each their own. That is the great thing about reading a book. Perception will vary depending on the reader.

What did you think of it?
It's been a while since I read it but I agree with aj it was rather leftist.

To me, facts are facts, whether its left or right. I try to see things as how well they are presented and what evidence is put forth. Cant argue with evidence just because you don't agree with a left stance.
I am not saying Zinn's book is 100% factual, but I think its more important to view a position based on the evidence, as opposed to whether it has left or right leanings. Who cares. As long as its correct.
For what its worth, if I had to classify myself as anything, Id be an Independent.
