Irish, Italian Americans we love you. But it would go a long way in unifying the country if you understood how your for fathers were brought here. Just before your ancestors came, America went through the bloodiest and weakest period either before and after the American revolution. Understanding real history, and not what we are told, is key, in understanding why the Country has been divided for more than 150 yrs.,
The First big lie! We are told there was a potato blithe that forced starving Irish to migrate to America,.. In 1844 and 1845 the price of potatoes in Ireland did rise 50%,,but Ireland is a green island raising a great variety of foods, patatos are a small part of the Irish diet. Besides the so called blite occured 30 yrs before the great migration of Irish began......
Ireland like the US, wanted to be free from England and rebelled, People were hungry because of revolution and fled to England and France to escape from the tumult. of revolution. , The Irish revolution was different from the American revolution, because the Irish coming to America spent 30 yrs in poverty living in England and France. Hated by the English, With the Irish hating the English and the French as well.....
More than 20 yrs after the first big lie. In 1864, to end the Civil War., Lincoln sent an Envoy to England and France, and gave them all they asked for, in exchange for ending selling arms to the South. One of the things given away was control of Americas immigration policies...Lincoln did not want to keep his word, is probably why he was assented...
Be for the Civil war, England transported he Irish problem, half way around the world to Australia, The long voyage was shortened when England gained control of American immigration..
Now she could dump any problems on America, only a few days by ship ..
The new English and French lords , now controlling immigration, wanted the cheep labor of the Irish and Italian immigrants,to work in the crowed sweat shops as industrialization moved to America.. ,But a new lie had to be concocted, to prevent new immigrants from migrating to the warmer and less crowded climate in the South. Wall st invented a tuberculous epidemic in Europe, and a quarantine at Ellis island in NYC Harbor to prevent ships from sailing into Georgia, New Orleans and Galveston harbors.Congress went along with Wall st, because her greatest fear was to see New population in the South, adding new states and loosing control of Washington to the Southern coalition of States..
20 Million new immigrants came to America through Ellis island...To keep the millions from migrating and taking advantage of the wealth promised by Lincoln, more "dirty tricks" were necessary. Lincoln's promise of 160 acres for all new immigrants was already compromised by Lincolns envoy..
The same dirty tricks used to keep the South from adding new states would now be used to keep the Irish and Italian immigrants off the land they were promised! Following Flordia anexation and statehood in 1825 Norther politicians began to worry, the Nations future and center of the Country would be moved to the South, To prevent the South from moving westward, Congress passed The Indian Removal act in 1830......Although millions of acres were alacated as Indian terratory, only a narrow strip of land, 360,000 acres were actually given to the 10 Indian tribes forced to leave their lands.
The narrow strip streched from Mexico, on the South to the Northern state of Missouri .Brutality was inflicted on all 10 tribes in an effort to make The Indians hate whites ,and prevent them from integrating with the Indians, To prevent the South from moving into Texas Mexico had already invited the Cherokee Indians to establish on the west bank of the Sabine river. .The idea of an independent TEXAS started with the Cherokees, The Father of Texas Sam Houston was living with the Cherokees, on their land in Georgia. Houston Joined the Cherokees in the fight FOR an independent Texas .The Independence of Texas from Mexico and Whites marrying Cherokee women ,forced The Yankee control ed Congress to change efforts to prevent Southern Expansion. Texas application for statehood was rejected, 10 yrs later Texas was annexed to prevent Germany and Spain from gaining a Foothold in Texas.
