Cheaper than Slaves: How Irish Immigrants Built America's Most Dangerous Projects
Description:
They fled the devastating Irish Potato Famine and centuries of British oppression, seeking hope in the New World. But for many Irish immigrants, America was no promised land-it was a battlefield of survival. This is the harrowing, untold story of how Irish migrants became the backbone of America’s infrastructure, working jobs so dangerous, so grueling, that they were deemed 'cheaper than slaves.'
In this video, we uncover how Irish immigrants dug canals, built railroads, and toiled in filthy swamps, often knee-deep in death and disease. We delve into the brutal conditions they endured, from constructing the Erie Canal to laying the transcontinental railroad. We'll explore the staggering death rates on these projects, the systemic discrimination they faced from the 'No Irish Need Apply' era, and how they were used as disposable labor in America's industrial expansion.
But this isn’t just a story of hardship-it’s a tale of resilience, community, and the enduring Irish spirit. Despite relentless prejudice and exclusion, Irish immigrants fought to become a vital part of the American fabric, from politics to labor movements. They survived nativist hate groups like the Know-Nothings, overcame staggering odds, and reshaped America in their own image.

It was genocide more than famine. There was plenty of food!
Painting to descriminate or exposing the truth about what people who are going through a lot look like while enduring hardship?
Are they allowed in the klan today?😅
The pilgrim masters went that bit further 🇬🇧🇺🇸🏴☠️
What does that mean? I am getting the impression you are a wasp?
@ they travelled to the west coast spreading the name of Jesus. Ulster Scots taught at the Alamo too.
AI mimicked voice of a legend. How dare ye. Dislike
We had to have passports we did not get free money medical or homes.
how can you possibly spread writin?
This is a great David Attenborough impression....
Complete BS churchill had no roll in partitioning ireland or any negotiations with collins.All this was done under loyd George
Since when is the 1960s "early in the 20th century?" A Bostonian, asking for a friend.
AI making bunk diagrams.
I am not an AI😊, and which diagrams?
To be fair to Churchill, they were Irish
WHAT TOTAL ROT. When it hit "malaria" I had to quit. (Really. Malaria. New York. FFS.) Waste of time.
There was malaria in New York in those days and thousands died from it during the construction. It’s great that the world has improved so much that we no longer remember that it was a big deal in USA of those days😃
malaria was everywhere my man. as was TB, Scarlet and yellow fever, blood bourn and mosquito transferred
Is the narrator David Attenborough?!
No
McAdoo was head of KKK, and his surname is clearly Irish. Very ironic, per usual lol!
Irish criminality? Anyone surprised
Do THEY get any reparations???
They should, from England. Jews got them from Germany. Stupid fucking comment that isn't about any goddamn thing but your lack of historical knowledge.
WE Wouldn’t accept them! ☘️🇺🇸
"Did Ireland, a newly-minted republic founded by socialists, help the anti-socialist, openly fascist Nazis, a regime which had pledged to eliminate all socialists?" Hmm. Boy, this sure is a tough one to call - especially with there being zero evidence of it happening, and a surplus of evidence that Ireland aided the Allies. I guess we'll just never know.
The KKK wanted to protect their Anglo Saxon Protestant heritage . I find it strange that no American now would ever refer to himself as a British or English American and not wanting to be associated with Britain. Whereas being Irish American is worn as a badge of honour. No American president visits the U.K. in search of his ancestral roots whereas many Presidents have visited Ireland in search of their ancestral roots.
Shame those Irish forgot their history. WoW… sounds like the hate over illegal immigration.
And I don't like the ending of this piece, because as it suggests by showing pictures of King, X and other Great Black Champions of justice, that the Irish taught us how to fight! Because that was the furthest thing from the Truth!! We are Natural born Warriors. fighters, in fact we would have to fight the Irish as well as they assimilated into whiteness here in Amerika and they also furthered the oppression of Black people here in Amerika. So, STOP it with the WHITE LIES!
Irish National Here, not only is the Irish steriotype completely wrong it's the exact opposite historically, We were one of the most unified and scholarly places in pre-medieval History, until we were enlaved and starved by our neighbour for almost a millenia, and when we were dirty and uneducated in our hovels due to poverty, the british gladly ackowledged our "primitivism" and "idiocy" as racial flaws.
What the Irish went through here in Amerika doesn't even come CLOSE to the ATROCITIES that were committed against Black People here in Amerika. So, they get as much empathy from me than they gave us. Which I can assure you was none!
The so-called Founding Fathers didn't consider any of these Europeans immigrants as White i,e, Irish, Germans, Jews, Dutch, French, Russians, Belgians, Scottish, Swedes, and certainly not the Italians etc... Because if you were not of Anglo Saxon decent you were not considered White here in Amerika! However, over time all of these failed immigrant groups were able to assimilate into Whiteness in the late 1600's, because they all had one thing in common and that was hating on the very people that gave them and Amerika everything! And that was Black People, our ancestors literally built this country making it the wealthiest nation on planet earth! They all FBA's!!!!!!!!!
What these klan people DO NOT understand or even realize: is they are part Irish, German, English, Italian and who the f@ck knows where THEIR ancestors are from.... They're not NATIVE f****** American. God bless it
Full circle as these days the Irish support Hamas. Great morals, Irish folks.
The Irish are hard workers
The only that's changed here is that even the Irish American are doing the same thing to other groups coming here and before you start I'm Irish American my self .
What absolute nonsense!
I'm black Irish. My great grandfather came straight for Ireland. I'm going to do a DNA test to learn more about my Irish, Choctaw Clovis, and of course African heritage.
The sun never set on the Empire because God could not trust the British in the dark!
None will have fought the Russians
A guy with a Gaelic surname - McAdoo - who hates Irish immigrants. Sort of like Trumpers who don't realize that Obamacare, the healthcare resource they hate, is actually ACA, the program they love. Only in America. SMDH.
And Balfour sent the Black and saTan's off to Palestine in 1917
What does the Koran say about the Holy Trinity ?
This happened to my Irish immigrant family. They had been farmers in Iowa for fifty years in the 1920's and had been American citizens for that time also. The Klan (in their white robes) came to their house and burnt a cross in their yard while my elderly great aunt stood in and watched from her porch with her rosary in her hand. The next day her son went to town and some local business men told him that "it was nothing personal but they didn't want Irish or Catholics in their county". They were told to leave the county which they did as soon as they could. My mother also suffered as a child in the thirties from prejudice in the thirties because of her religion and Irish heritage.
That being said I am from Peru and I stand with my Irish Brothers and sisters.... One day there will be a unified Ireland
"How the irish became white" read it, tells you everything you need to know about the irish
Asmongolds editor has a new channel?
Chad irish: w cuts w hair green top hats vikings. . .which i think invaded them but VALLHALLA Virgin KKK: dollar store shiesty mask ice cream cone on their head cringe ah vision dogshit ghost costume
Yeah the bold Irish men and women were a constant treath to Britain. Really can't fathom how the Britain put up with shite for 800 years, they must be a special race.
Up the Irish. Erin go bragh.
Outside of the anglosphere he is largely hated and rightly so! Bengal, Kenya, Sudan, South Africa and Ireland all places where he committed atrocities. In Bengal his callous racism led him to allow the deaths of at least 3 million. If he hadn’t been prime minister during ww2 he would only be remembered as a monster. His crimes are akin to other mass murdering dictators of the 20th century.
Its quite simple he is a villan, world war 2 had villans on both sides! The victorious played the heroes but not all were heros, look wt the Russian leadership that won the war, look at the British empire that fought the war! Look at the American Empire that stayed out of it as long as possible! War is an ugly business!
The celebrated his death. Blood thirsty villain. He should have been brought to the ICC if it had existed in 1916 onwards. He destroyed a lot of countries like his mad father.
The persecution by the KKK looks like a continuation of England's effort to eradicate the Scots and Irish. Learned of it when I visited the land of my father's heritage.
Yet the Irish in New York massacred Black people at one point. It seems to be that the lowest on the totem pole needs to reject the next wave of people looking for a decent wage and prosperity. As it is with Trump appealing to those perceiving themselves to be taken over by the next group who are trying to have a stable home. Fear of loss is the biggest cause of banding together to protect what could be taken away. Doesn't matter what nationality or race or religion. Pretty basic behaviour throughout our human expansion.
American society has a habit of White Breading European people. Forget who your people are, become suburbanized and bland. Then when you find yourself missing something, the Far Right comes to you with a false identity of self. But you do have an identity already inside you, from your ancestors. No real Irishman can back oppression... that's like a Black American supporting slavery.
I think most Scots and Irish basically hate the English. Even if I like certain English, in my heart as a Republican I hate the whole bunch especially the monarch.
The United States, where ethnic cultures go to die and be absorbed into a rootless society of consumerism.
