251. St. Patrick's Day feels different this year under the Trump administration

from The UPstander's Podcast with Dr. Omekongo · host Dr. Omekongo Dibinga

I never celebrated St. Patrick's Day but I always appreciated it growing up in Boston. I believe that everyone should have the ability to celebrate their holidays. It feels different this year because the #trump administration is actively working to remove the celebration of non-White holidays. Schools and companies, as well as government groups are actively working to stop celebrations of diverse groups. Many of us have a "What about us?" mentality right now and it's not cool. #stpatricksday #stpatricksday2025 #stpatricksdayparade #catholic #stpattysday #upstander #holi #blackhistorymonth #womenshistorymonth #juneteenth STAY CONNECTED: Instagram | http://www.instagram.com/omekongo Twitter | http://www.twitter.com/omekongo Facebook | http://www.facebook.com/omekongo Website | http://www.omekongo.com Learn more about your ad choices.
