"Like the Indians, they have suffered loss of their ancestral land; like the blacks, they have endured bondage; like the Jews, they have tasted religious persecution; like the Asians, they have been scorned because they looked and acted "different"; like the Italians and the Slavs, they have been despised as "poor and ignorant"; like the Hispanics, they have been denounced as violent and disruptive." Griffin, William D., The Book of Irish Americans, Times Books (New York, 1990)
