Pope:Irish Brought Whiskey, Italians Mafia to US; Talks of Integrating Migrants in a New Country

Speaking about the need to welcome and integrate migrants when they arrive in a new country, Pope Francis said that when it comes to the U.S., "a people of migrants," the Irish brought the whiskey and the Italians brought the mafia, the Crux website reports today (May 26, 2022).  


To understand migrants today, the pope said, the only thing most people have to do is look to their own roots because "most of us are children or grandchildren of migrants."


The pope's remarks came yesterday as he spoke in a private audience with members of the International Solidarity Fund, a unique alliance catalyzing partnership for the most vulnerable across the private sector.
