GUEST,bob af Folkies supporting IRA (307* d) RE: Folkies supporting IRA 09 Jul 06


Are some UK folk musicians actually still defenders of Brit imperialist rule in the north of Ireland and still opposed to Irish cultural resistance to the continued partition of Ireland by the UK imperialist state?

One reason the Clancy Brothers became very popular, historically, in the USA, however, is that most people in the United States have long been opposed to the continued violation of Irish national self-determination rights by British imperialism; and many U.S. folk musicians and U.S. folk music fans are very fond of Irish rebel folk music. Many folk music fans in the U.S. still like to hear songs that recall Irish freedom fighter resistance to British state terrorism in Ireland.
