Abstract
The article focuses on how St Patrick's Day parades in the U.S. have long served as a platform for political expression and activism within the Irish diaspora, particularly in relation to civil rights in Northern Ireland. Topics include the historical evolution of Irish American St Patrick's Day celebrations, the influence of the American civil rights movement on Northern Irish activism, and the tensions within the diaspora over political participation and representation in the parades.
