Everyone Is
Something
Everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s
Day, especially in Heppner. Even I’m
a little Irish, just call me O’Glenn. And
that’s the way it ought to be because
it really is true that most of us are
descended from a number of na
tionalities and it gets all mixed up preny
quick. A little Irish blood goes a long
way, if you know what I mean
I was talking to a friend of mine just
the other day, telling him about the big
celebration in Heppner on St. Patrick’s
day and then he told me about the big
celebration in Cleveland on Columbus’
By Ed Glenn
Day. Now we don’t think about Col
umbus’ Day much in these parts, but
in Cleveland it’s a big deal. You see, there are a lot of Italians in Cleveland
and Christopher Columbus was an Italian. In Cleveland nearly everybody
is Italian, not just on Columbus’ Day, but all year long.
But only American Italians celebrate Columbus’ Day. As they say in
Cleveland, in a country discovered by Christopher Columbus and named
after Amerigo Vespucci, what can be more American than a surname en
ding in a vowel?
Now why that made me think of it, I don’t know, but I remembered
years ago being invited to one of the most magnificent feasts I have ever
enjoyed. The occasion was Chinese New Year and my host had cooked
and cooked and cooked for days getting ready. It was a pretty big party
and I didn’t see a single person in which Chinese ancestry was evident,
but as they say, we’re all a little Chinese on Chinese New Year
And it isn’t necessary to be 100% Mexican to celebrate Cinco de Mayo
nor do you have to be a devout Catholic to get a kick out of Mardi Gras.
My Scandinavian friends celebrate St. Lucia every year and most of us
have a day off on Martin Luther King Day. I’m a little bit French so I
party hearty on Bastille Day. I asked one of my Indian friends what big
celebration American Indians do up right and he told me each tribe has
a different feast. I don’t know which tribe I belong to so I join them all.
There's a few poor souls I know that aren’t a little Irish or Italian or
something or another. They’re just plain Americans. But that’s not all bad
either, because we have a celebration just for them, the Fourth of July
And so they won’t feel too lonely, I join in that one too.
I think it is marvelous that we can all hang on to a little bit of the old
and pick up a little bit of the new. In my mind, that’s what America is
all about.
A place where we all learn to speak English even though we may be
French or Spanish or Korean. A place where we can practice democracy
even though we may have been the King's subject. A place where we can
marry an Irish lass even though we might be a little Scotch
Sometimes, though, ethnic background gets in the way of being an
American. We’ve all seen that kind of zeal, and we owe it to ourselves
to make everyone a little Irish. And a little German and a little Polyne
sian. That way the Americanization of us all will make things a lot better.
We have a little obligation in that regard too. You and I, the All American
folks who are a little Irish and a little of this and that, can’t forget the
folks who are a lot of something else. Sometimes we share a little fault
in driving Africans into a ghetto, or preventing Mexicans from learning
English. We've held Native Americans (who really discovered this place,
you know) on reservations and we even put our Japanese Americans in
concentration camps.
Well, I’m going to enjoy being Irish on St. Patrick's Day, that’s for
sure. And I’m going to do what I can to make sure all Americans can feel
little Irish next year,
