On this day it is time to spread the TRUTH about the Famine and that is not the version the Brits tell. Who better to tell that truth than Americans of Irish descent, as we are the ones who know it best. The truth has been handed down in our families and kept very much alive.

Against all odds our grandmothers and great grandmothers survived and risked everything to make a better life for us. Their great pain and struggle should never be forgotten. The British Empire's hand in the starving out of the Irish people ranks among the greatest crimes against humanity.

Never forget!
