The more I learn about the ulster plantation, the more it explains the attitudes and experiences of the scots Irish in the Americas. The lack of a historical narrative, family life, conflicts with religion; even their love of beards!! A fascinating people
@@TheDemigregwth are u talking about. What a vague weird statement. Are u saying the scots irish/Ulster Scots weren't a real thing? So how did I get here. I've done my geneology old chap. My ppl came from Scotland an Ulster. As well as England an Wales, but mostly Scotland an Ulster. So what exactly are ye trying to say? We're we here all along? Are we not really here now? Did we sprout from the ground? I look forward to your reply.
Thankfully the Gaels and nationalist population have survived and thrived and now outnumber the Unionist/ British population descendents of the orginal planter population what does this change mean going forward into the 21st century post Brexit?
Not that simple I'm afraid Sandra. Many Roman Catholics are in fact closet Unionists. They may well vote Sinn Fein in an election but ask them about reunification & many will state that they are better off in the UK - cheaper prices, NHS, well paid UK civil service jobs. They can identify as Irish or British & hold both EU & UK passports. It's a no brainer to stay in the UK - the republic won't be a cash cow like the UK is.
@@RobertK1993 how things change. triclor and unon flag flying together outside belfast city hall chanting No Passport No Entry and the catholics shouting TRAITOR at Sinn Fein MP's. EU has put illegals into hotel accommodation while young irish cannot afford a home let alone a baby...wake up Ireland
How da fuck do you know they are Gaelic, just because they are Catholic?? They could be descendants of old English,Scottish ,Scandinavian, Welsh ffs even Polish . So if you are Catholic in Ireland it qualifys you to be of Gaelic decent 😂. Many of the Scottish Gaels from Galloway in Southwest Scotland, who made up a large proportion of Planters were in fact descended from Gaels from Ireland who had conquered and colonised Galloway 500 years earlier. Their descendants would merely return to Ireland as predominantly English speaking Protestants.

"scots Irish in the Americas" most of that is pure mythology.
Troubling people causing secatarian white supermacy everywhere they go
@@TheDemigreg Ulster Scots in America greatest achievement was KKK and they are proud of that
KKK I suppose is Scotch Irish organisation

Thanks for this quick video! American here who needed a short intro to the topic.
@Sandra Browne,yes the Irish Gaels are in charge now,and so it should be..they are the just ones
Anglo Irish Anglicans and Ulster Scots Presbyterians have proven incompetent to rule Ireland for British establishment
What counties did the English settlers come from in England

Only a Very Twisted Person would agree with British Colonialism.
But they do exist unfortunately today, and Celebrate it openly each year.
Ulster Unionists do
That teaching style of "you guys should know" .... /:I
Gaelic Irish were ethnically cleansed.
The Scottish planters were far more advanced than the native Irish. They were way ahead of their time in farming methods & agricultural knowhow.
Hardly bunch backward Orangemen many live 17th Century thier Seige Mentality of Ulster Unionists/Loyalists is self inflicted
