He was American not Polish. (American citizen)
edit:
He was a Catholic priest of St. Stanislaus Kostka Roman Catholic Church in Chicago, then the largest Polish church in the country.

I grew up with a lot of racial tension & never thought in a million years I’d marry a white guy, I have had very poor experiences with white ppl as a kid and when I met his family it totally changed my POV. Not everybody is a racist POS and many care about changing the narrative.
