There's no equivalent to "black" in Irish because there was never a need to be better than others wrt ethnicity. That's a colonial horror.
The term gorm ( blue ) equally applies to dark skinned Irish folk... any other use by racist fucktards is simply warped...
Further, our mythology eulogizes diversity. Take for example Bodach an chóta Lachna in the Fionn cycle. Great warriors from afar, not slaves
Any pervert can write shite in our language, it doesn't validate or resonate with our documented history or proto history...
Last word on this... black lives matter. In the American context these are folk *robbed* of identity and history by Colonial assholes.
Perhaps point the t-shirt wearer at the etymology of 'gorm' because they're misappropriating it anyway https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Celtic/gurmos … #eejits
