“America may have been providentially chosen, but that was far from true for a good number of its inhabitants. The same racist ideology that allowed this generation of people to so easily take land from the Mexicans and Native Americans was also endowing them with the justification they needed. The Irish, a growing number of Americans maintained, were not just a different race; they were visibly inferior.”
