A 14-year-old girl has proven that historical scholarship is not solely the realm of tweedy academics. Armed with her curiosity and an Internet connection, Rebecca Fried has written an article in an academic journal that debunks a history professor’s claim that “No Irish Need Apply” signs were not historical realities, but “a myth of victimization.”

“Just for the fun of it, I started to run a few quick searches on an online newspaper database that I found on Google,” she told The Daily Beast. “I was really surprised when I started finding examples of NINA ads in old 19th-century newspapers pretty quickly.”

Sad part is, this girl would have gotten ignored by some here, just because of her age. Lol

I meant to mention him and forgot, thanks.

Any chance you can fix my spelling of American on the title? I'm trying to watch my boys' first preseason game at the same time and messed up.
