U Dhammaloka (Burmese ဦးဓမ္မလောက) lived from 1856–1914. He was an Irish-born migrant worker [1] who became a Theravada Buddhist monk.

He was a strong critic of Christian missionaries and a temperance campaigner who took an active role in the Asian Buddhist revival around the turn of the 20th century.

Venerable Dhammaloka (because "U," pronounced ooh, is not a name or initial but a Burmese honorific) was ordained in Burma prior to 1900, making him the earliest attested Western Buddhist monk in modern times.

He was a celebrity preacher, vigorous polemicist, and prolific editor in Burma and Singapore between 1900 and his conviction for sedition and appeal in 1910–1911.

Drawing on Western atheist (freethinking) writings, he publicly challenged the role of Christian missionaries and resisted attempts by the colonial government to charge him for sedition. More

Chicano English in Context

Chicano English in Context by linguist Carmen Fought is the first modern, comprehensive study of Chicano English, a variety of English (mingling with Spanish) spoken by millions of Latinos/Latinas/Hispanics in the U.S. It is also one of the first studies of ongoing sound change within an ethnic minority community. It briefly describes the phonology, syntax, and semantics of this variety and explores its crucial role in the construction of ethnic identity among young Latinas/Latinx. It also corrects misconceptions in how the general public views Chicano English. Chicano English in Context

(LX News) As prevalent as Spanglish is already, there are many who believe we’ll only see that influence expand as generations of Latinx [Latino/Latina] youth grow up, start families, and enter the workforce. As the share of U.S. Latinos who speak Spanish at home drops and those who speak English grows, could Spanglish one day overtake Spanish as the second-most spoken language in the U.S.? #NBCLX

Commonly referred to simply as Glastonbury Festival and known colloquially as "Glasto," this five-day festival of performing arts is held near Pilton, Somerset, England, most summers. It is the biggest open-air festival in the world.

Will you behave this year, Boys? And don't cuss.

In addition to contemporary music, the festival hosts dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, and other arts. Leading pop and rock artists have headlined, alongside thousands of others appearing on smaller stages and performance areas.

Films and albums have been recorded at the festival, and it receives extensive TV and newspaper coverage. Glastonbury takes place on 1,500 acres of farmland [3] and is attended by about 200,000 people [4], with extensive security, transportation, water, and electricity-supply infrastructure (stuff built on the ground).

While the number of attendees is sometimes swollen by gatecrashers, a record of 300,000 people was set at the 1994 festival, headlined by the Levellers, who performed on the Pyramid Stage [5].

Most festival staff are unpaid volunteers, helping the festival to raise millions of pounds for charity organizations [6].

What kind of hippie festival?

Woodstock, New York, changed the world

Regarded as a major event in contemporary British culture, the festival is inspired by the ethos of the hippie, the counterculture of the 1960s, and the free festival movement. [It's the British version of Woodstock.]

Vestiges of these traditions are retained in the Green Fields area, which includes sections known as the Green Futures, the Stone Circle, and Healing Field [7].

Michael Eavis hosted the first one, then called the Pilton Festival, after seeing an open-air Led Zeppelin concert in 1970 at the Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music. More: Glastonbury Festival

(Fusion Kidd) June 16, 2025: As Glastonbury 2025 opens, what is the history of other open-air festivals akin to Woodstock? Here are some rare photos of the 1969 Isle of Wight Festival, but in this case they are colorized and brought to life with animated motion (1968–1970). How the ChatGPT or AI modeling is able to project what happened after these photographs were taken is the mystery of something going into AI's black box and something else coming out with no one able to explain what happened in between.

Irish (Gaelic) rappers Kneecap: 'witch-hunt'

Kneecap dares to criticize Israel (IG)

Speaking at a surprise gig in London last night (May 24, 2025), [Irish Gaelic outlaw rappers] Kneecap claimed that the terror[ism] charge against one of their members is part of a “witch-hunt” intended to stop them from playing at Glastonbury.

Yesterday, Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, 27, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged with a terror offence [terrorism offense] after allegedly waving the flag of Hezbollah onstage at a gig last November.

Hezbollah is a proscribed group in the UK, meaning it is illegal to “invite support” for them.

Don't say, "F*CK ISRAEL!"

Whatever you say, don't say "Fuck Israel" -- or you'll get in BIG trouble.

After denying the charge and promising to fight it in court, the band announced a surprise gig at the 100 Club in London, which they said sold out in 90 seconds.

The poster for the gig featured a recent quote from former [punk rock legend] Sex Pistols singer Johnny Rotten, who suggested the band “need a bloody good kneecapping.”

Ó hAnnaidh took the stage with duct tape over his mouth, before saying, “There’s a reason why what’s happened to me, happened before Glastonbury. There’s a reason they’re trying to f*cking stop me speaking at Glastonbury in front of the UK.”

Irish rap?

Irish hip-hop, also known as Irish rap, is a term for any hip-hop music produced and performed by a person who was born or grew up in Ireland. This genre is made up of a variety of subgenres such as Irish grime/drill, Irish language (Gaelic) rap, alternative rap, and Irish trap. Each of these may infuse influences from both Irish culture and another culture.

Irish hip-hop originated in the early 1990s [1], being influenced by the 1970s movement for hip-hop in New York, USA. The original Irish hip-hop was politically driven due to the tension of The Troubles (resisting British domination) in the early 1990s, and mixed music styles of both traditional music and Rudeboy Dancehall [2].

Irish rap genres, such as drill and grime, are mainly influenced by UK rap, while alt-rap and Irish hip-hop have a greater influence from the U.S. Irish rap is mainly listened to people in Ireland and to a lesser extent people in the UK [3]. More

Jump around, Lads, like HOP!

(Sony Pictures Classics) Summer 2024: White men can't jump. Everyone knows it. But can they rap as in craic (pronounced \crack\) with a tune like they're reading Joyce on molly to a beat on the ones and twos? That, mate, is the question. This trio is like the white version of the Beastie Boys. lol This is a true story, though not a full documentary, about a crew of Celtic rappers in the Irish language, singing about what they see going on around them. Is it a first? What about House of Pain, following on Latin Thug rappers Cypress Hill? It's been done in the States, but had it ever been done in Dublin, p*ssing off the Unionist Protestants still reeling from the glorious Battle of the Boyne?

Synopsis

If you're born Irish, you're lucky enough.

When fate brings Belfast schoolteacher JJ into the orbit of self-confessed "low life scum" Naoise and Liam Og, the needle drops on a hip-hop act like no other.

Rapping in their native Irish language, Kneecap fast become the unlikely figureheads of a Civil Rights Movement to save their mother tongue (Gaelic to us, just called "Irish" in Ireland).

But the trio must first overcome police, paramilitaries, politicians trying to silence their defiant sound -- whilst their anarchic approach to life often makes them their own worst enemies.

We love sports risking kneecap injuries!

In this fiercely original sex, drugs, and hip-hop biopic, the musical group Kneecap play themselves, laying down a global rallying cry for the defense of native cultures. #Kneecap #OfficialTrailer #SonyClassics
