Apology
I have received a few comments concerning the “Let Them Hate..” post. I sincerely apologize if my posts sound ignorant or at all one-sided because I definitely did not intend for them to. I understand that flute band parades are important to many communities in Northern Ireland, and my point-of-view came from not quite understanding at the time what was going on. I had just arrived a few days prior to writing that post and was out exploring completely on my own while still finding my own footing in the country. The visual aspect of the parade seemed interesting and provocative from an American perspective, and I apologize if any of my questions or comments felt at all slanderous.
