Irish slaves came to America before black slaves. “We” were shipped over from Great Britain as indentured servants. And because “we” were to be owned for a finite period of time before being set free, there was no need for the owners to keep “us” healthy toward the end of our servitude. Most of “us” died weak and starved.

Every people on earth have been enslaved at one point except for Thailand...
Conquered nations were carried into slavery.
Most people have not embraced it as the central feature of their identity.

Also, many Scots came to this country the same way.
