Message: Entry: Learning to Love the French Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/learning_to_love_the_french#12334 Post contents: The existence of the Franco-Americans deserves to be better known, not least because much American hostility to the French as “cheese-eating surrender-monkeys” and what have you finds no parallel in relation to the much more obvious targets: the Germans, the Italians, and the not very honorably neutral Irish and Swedes. The reason? Simply that everybody knows there to be lots of Americans of German, Italian, Irish or Swedish descent. But who knows about those of French descent? Well, they should know.
