Yes there are. People will say that if someone is black they cannot be Irish. The Irish people, even white people, are made up of peoples from many different countries, so Irish people can be traced back to many countries and races. So a black person born in Ireland is just as Irish as people born in Ireland whose origins come from Scandinavia, Spain(where the very first Irish people came from over 8000 years ago), Britain and the many other countries that come to make up Irish people. By now there are black people being born in Ireland to black parents who were also born in Ireland. Skin colour does not decide nationality and the vast majority of so-called Irish people that are white, are not of one ethnic race. There are many famous black Irish people like the footballer Paul McGrath or the singer Phil Lynott.

Why do you look black if I'm Irish and black?

Everybody looks different. How you will look will depend on your parents and how they look. So you may look black, but still be Irish, so you could have an Irish accent, and if one or both of your parents were Irish, that would affect how you look. Some Irish people may have black parents who came from different countries in Africa or Asia. Some people in Ireland have dark features, going back to the original Irish people coming from northern Spain, at least 8000 years ago.


How do Irish people have black hair?
