The date matters because you said up until the civil war. There were no irish slaves here. The closests were indentured servants. This last photo doesnt show up on the internet but looking a the kids tells me they are mixed. You do realize that I have a great grandmother that passed for white.What does the date matter? Here, one from 1864
Where is the date and where does it say slave?You still haven't showed me an Irish slave that existed so how did you prove me wrong?You stated there were no whites in slavery but Indentured , then when I proved you wrong you told me to show you an Irish that is a slave today. They were emancipated just as Black's were, thus I was showing you your question was erroneous in its nature.
Now to the rest of my questions.
Many people today will avoid calling the Irish slaves what they truly were: Slaves. They’ll come up with terms like “Indentured Servants” to describe what occurred to the Irish. However, in most cases from the 17th and 18th centuries, Irish slaves were nothing more than human cattle.
As an example, the African slave trade was just beginning during this same period. It is well recorded that African slaves, not tainted with the stain of the hated Catholic theology and more expensive to purchase, were often treated far better than their Irish counterparts.

They’ll come up with terms like “Indentured Servants” - but a rose by any other name is still a rose
