We wanted to share this incredibly thought provoking and poignant short story written by our dear friend Michael Plemmons. He is the author of Fianna and the catalyst for the inspiration behind our Fenian Raid. Enjoy!
The Fenian Raid Celebration is held annually on Labor Day Weekend in Port Huron, Michigan. This historical reenactment event brings Port Huron's post Civil War era to life.The celebration commemorates an attempt by the area's Irish-American population, the Fenian Brotherhood, to invade British North America (Canada) and use it as a bargaining chip with the Queen of England to free Ireland.
