What do words used in Ireland have to do with black Americans? The problem with Americans of all colours is that you have main character syndrome. We're not going to change words that we've been using for hundreds of years because you've had a tantrum. You're not special, sorry!

Cromwell didn't "give" the Book of Kells to Trinity College. It was hidden away before he reached Kells Abbey (which he turned into stables) and only "reappeared" a decade or so later. Spreading lies and misinformation makes you just as bad as the far right crowd.

Insulie de Tuskerrs, now Tuskar Rock (Wexford), appears in a 14th-century memoranda roll entry. The name is evidence of Viking presence in the area, tu means large and skar means rock in Old Norse. So the modern name literally means Large Rock Rock.
