It was a great pleasure to represent @BostonCollege and the @IrishInstBC at the opening ceremony of this year's @JFK_SS Summer School. The @IrelandAmbUSA's remarks stressed that relations with the US are strong and despite policy differences, Ireland is always listened to in DC.
A privilege to be in Wexford to open @JFK_SS 2026.
JFK’s call to civic engagement and public service remains as relevant today as ever. Proud that the Kennedy Summer School continues to celebrate the strong ties between Ireland and the U.S. in his ancestral home. 🇮🇪🇺🇸

Building a new Ireland doesn't have to be about flags or emblems or the past.
It can be the radical and inspiring project we needed to counter disillusionment and extremism.

On May 26, 1647, the #Massachusetts General Court officially passed a law banning Catholic Jesuit priests from the Bay Colony. This anti-Catholic sentiment, based on Puritan ideology, lasted for centuries in #Boston. irishboston.blogspot.com/202…
