I am an Irish Canadian. I am being harassed threatened systematically murdered as part of an art robbery and misconduct cover-up pertaining to being impregnated as a minor. My child(now adult) and grandchildren were stolen and given to the statutory rapist. Hatred inciting by the offender and 3 major abdominal surgeries (medical negligence) as well as crooked landlords have cost my life essentially . Corruption/ human rights violations is making it difficult to get help locally. I am in danger & so are my daughter & grandchildren. If there is anything you can do I would appreciate the assistance Thank You Ive cannot find a lawyer & tried the canadian human rights commission already Im terminally disabled due to the pregnancy. My grandkids and daughter are in grave danger

This is such a strong testimony to the Canadian People!! God Bless them all! Thank You 🇨🇦 Canada!

The name is Celtic by the way.

My wife and I both found this programme very interesting, not least because it told us one or two things we hadn't heard before.

Wow this is chilling and extraordinary. Our family had two little girls sent to Canada and Australia from Croghan, Co Roscommon. They were they only surviving members of their family as the famine took all other family members in their household. 😢

Thank you from a grateful Irishman.

Bless your nation and your people love from Ireland🇮🇪❤️

Don’t you think that Ireland should be more actively supporting the indigenous in Canada in their efforts for truth and reconciliation? I think they deserve our support and commitment to working with them in solidarity to get the land back! Truth told! and resources needed in their communities. As articulated by Professor Mark McGowan the indigenous have been lied to and all agreements broken by the British regards their land rights etc! Perhaps a read of one of the greatest Irishmen ever James Connolly is needed! Labour in Irish History! To clarify the machinations of the British Capitalist system. Thank god the French Revolution enlightened many of Irelands greats to fight the evil dehumanizing system of the British. I’m an Irishman living in Canada and I’ve learned a good part of the history here thanks to Lynn Gehl and the course Algonquin 101, 201 and my own research education! Anti Racism work etc. Support the Indigenous!!! Light the fire in your soul/hearts that the 16 lives series of men had who died for you to have your dignity and freedoms! The indigenous need dignity and freedom too! Our Liberation should be everyone’s Liberation!!

Thank you.

Thank you Choctaw Nation 🇮🇪💙🏳️‍🌈

I’d like to visit this one day, thank you.

Amazing video, thank you for unveiling this piece of history between Irish people and the Native People of Canada 💚

irish people from both sides of the religious divide died with the potato famine

Excellent, I love the research put into this - thank you :-)

This is the main thing that makes me embarrassed of my country it could have and should have been prevented.

Thank You ❤❤❤❤❤

God bless Ireland 🇮🇪 🥦🥬☔️🧶🕊✝️🇮🇪

God bless Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️🇮🇪🕊✝️🌹

If no one came over on those boats I wouldn't be here today.

Why is the famine of 1740 never talked about? Strange that.

Eddie has said in the past that he was inspired to start doing the finger-tapping trick after watching LED ZEPPELIN at the Los Angeles Forum in the early 1970s. But finger tapping goes way back.

I visited the National Famine Museum at Strokestown Park House for the first time yesterday. I knew my own ancestors came from around that area but was amazed to learn the estate of Strokestown Park House was where my great, great grandfather was born and reared. He was a Macdermott from the townland of Tully, in the parish of Kilglass. Passing through the entrance to the museum, I read the list of townlands that comprised the estate and read the inscription Tully. Immediately, I felt the shock of my own personal connection to the story the museum tells; I was about to read and understand how it was my family came to emigrate to England. I began to be aware of the harrowing experience of the Great Hunger that drove my great great grandfather and his parents and siblings from this place. The National Famine Museum has become for me a treasured family archive. I am grateful to those who keep the memories of this dreadful chapter in the history of Ireland alive. Thank you for this video.

The first slaves to America

Fredrick is one of my hero’s.In the 12 hundreds and other centuries it was not uncommon to see people in Arab dress walking the streets of Dingle for example.As gailge dark skined people are called fir gorm ,blue men.That’s cause they were mostly Berber north african wearing their blue robes. I could go on but my finger is getting tired👍

‘It was a financial disaster t’tell y’the truth’ but stands as a permanent memory to the poor souls who perished. Well done, Jim Callery.

Glad I found this website ♥️

Powerful video. Watched live in 23. Powerful, evocative. Important work.

I think Sit Tom might just be a closeted Well fan.🤔

One of your pictures shows johnson street in the parish of Holy Cross my mother in law is in that picture with my wifes granmother it looks likes 1832 it was actually 1932.

'I had a dream where a man would not be judged by the colour of his skin but by the content of his character'.. You can't look up to any incredible Irish scientists, writers, warriors, etc because they're White - so you have to make do with looking up to some guy who gave a speech one time. 😂

Interesting... name Aldridge it's a viking name, it's carved in a viking tower in Waterford 900AD. Aldric...It's also first name in the doomsday book, the book written by King James and that's Bible King James. Aldridge name has some of the craziest military records of all time, dating back nearly a thousand years, all over Europe and even America. It's most common name on the big tomb they built in Normandy after Dday, something like 300 of em died in one battle. King James named a whole town after a common soldier named Aldridge, it's still there in North England. That's my name, my grand dad was in WWI and WWII and his son was a soldier in irish army 35 years ... Aldridge were always freedom fighters, just look at who started the trucker strikes in Australia and Canada... Aldridge an btw, i play guitar too HAha!

Give the facts without the annoying background music.

Why do I think Master Juba if he was born today would have been a LGBTQ+ ballroom dancer. If you don’t know what that is look it up on KZbin.

Wonderful video! Wow!

This is a FANTASTIC video! What a treasure trove of knowledge and history!! I want to watch more videos by these two historians!! Where can I find more?! Outstanding!!

What is the piece of music that accompanies this please?

Thank you this is another interesting look at the Irish famine/genocide and displacement of the Irish. The generosity of people in Canada it’s nice to hear about

As the Irish ambassador says this is not a well know story in Ireland where I'm from. The teaching of Irish history in Ireland covers the Great Famine period in detail but concentrates on what happened on the island. We were thought next to nothing about what became of the people who left Ireland and now 175 years later we’re keen to find out what happened, and it's only though these excellent videos and the work of Mark McGowan and the local historians that we in Ireland can fill in the missing details. The video was very touching. Thanks to the contributors for sharing their story and best wishes to all our Irish/Canadian cousins across the pond. ☘☘☘

Great stuff. I've a lot of Irish ancestors who were Quakers and heavily involved in the soup kitchens etc. Many were so strongly against slavery that it actually meant their own businesses failed. Solidarity.

It was shocking to find out how much food was exported during this time in history.

❤

Fascinating

Also, consider this was after their population was decimated by European diseases, occupation and outright ethnic cleansing on places, after being forcefully relocated, discriminated against and pushed to the brink of society, after facing their own food insecurity, their own social unrest, their own lack of resources the First Nations still showed how spectacularly humane their culture was by helping the Irish and giving what they could. And how did history repay them? By burying the records of this kindness in the archives. The fact that the records have been found and the act of kindness is being celebrated by the Irish Heritage Trust commands respect. Perhaps it is time we should also offer thanks to Hawenneyu, Iagentci or Geha along side St. Patrick when we celebrate the Irish in Canada.

Don't forget that First Nations domesticated the Potato, that allowed the Irish to live on a better level of nutrition relative to the rest of Europe at the time. And when Corn was introduced to Africa, famine at the time was eradicated. First Nations domesticated 60% of the World's food. Read: '1491' by Charles Mann "With further donations from the Saugeen, Ojibwa of Lake Huron, and Moravian Ojibwa, the total Indigenous gift to the [Irish Famine] relief fund was £165, or $17,978 in today's Canadian currency. Some of these contributions came from Indigenous communities in Quebec." CBC news And my First Nations are stilled treated like 'Savages" after all the good we have done.

It is interesting to see how to distinct cultures merge.

I never heard about Master Juba. The sad thing about it is that he had to pretend to be a white man in blackface. You have to pretend to be a man that’s pretending to be you because if you just shows up as a black man it would conflict with the negative image that blackface is supposed to showcase

This was interesting. I never knew about tap dance and Master Juba.

Hail Hail🍀🇮🇪☘💚

It’s so interesting to see how Master Juba created tap dancing. and to see how it included north African influences. I had no idea!
