Yeah, the America Party became the fastest growing party in the US on the policy of getting rid of the Irish. Google "Thomas Nast". He made a bunch of these in the 19th century. This one is my favorite
At one point the Irish were below blacks on the totem pole. They were called "niggers turned inside-out" and made less money doing labor then their dark skinned opposition

Correct. Irish immigrants were drawn as apes in the 19th century newspapers. Fake news, to be shure.
This one makes me laugh because the guy has obviously never seen a real ape before and ended up drawing Chewbacca.

Gotta admit this is pretty interesting. Southern blacks were equal to northern Irish, according to this cartoon.
