St. Patrick: Pride, Prejudice, Pirates, and a Parade!

  • Summary

  • First, Carter gives us the evolution of St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations in the United States. From small beginnings in colonial Florida to redcoats in New England wearing green. The town of Troy, NY erupts in a deadly night of violence as prejudice meets Irish pride. Then, Brooklynites have no patience for an interrupted parade. Next, Marissa introduces us to the man, the myth, the legend: St. Patrick! Abducted by Irish pirates, the mysteriously wealthy son of a deacon has some divine visions and endures a pretty miserable mission to convert Ireland as his new recruits end up in chains.
