They even continued to export food to England. It&amp;#x27;s just that due to systematic oppression, Irish natives couldn&amp;#x27;t afford anything that weren&amp;#x27;t (now blighted) potatoes.&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#x27;s where the parallel comes from with the Native Americans.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Great_Famine_(Ireland)&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Great_Famine_(Ireland)&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Behind Irish outpouring of relief for Navajo</title><url>https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Society/2020/0513/In-each-other-s-shadows-Behind-Irish-outpouring-of-relief-for-Navajo?j=312538&amp;sfmc_sub=27907397&amp;l=1215_HTML&amp;u=11383268&amp;mid=10979696&amp;jb=68&amp;cmpid=ema:Weekender:20200516&amp;src=newsletter</url></story>

Showing gratitude is important and I think this shows gratitude for the solidarity shown in the past.&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#x27;re also aware &amp;#x27;Choctaw&amp;#x27; and &amp;#x27;Hopi&amp;#x27; and &amp;#x27;Navajo&amp;#x27; are all different tribes and Native Americans aren&amp;#x27;t a monolithic group. It&amp;#x27;s just hard if not nigh on impossible to give back to the exact people that helped us. It&amp;#x27;s the sentiment that counts in this sense.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Behind Irish outpouring of relief for Navajo</title><url>https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Society/2020/0513/In-each-other-s-shadows-Behind-Irish-outpouring-of-relief-for-Navajo?j=312538&amp;sfmc_sub=27907397&amp;l=1215_HTML&amp;u=11383268&amp;mid=10979696&amp;jb=68&amp;cmpid=ema:Weekender:20200516&amp;src=newsletter</url></story>
