The crop collapse and the political decisions around it decimated the island's population changing the course of Irish history. World history was also affected by a resultant wave of mass migration that spread Irish culture abroad, particularly to the United States. This documentary aired on the A&E cable channel in 1996. A small portion is missing at the 1:12:58 point (it is marked by a program ID) but the documentary and its information are basically intact and it is well worth watching.

Kindred Spirits - The Choctaw-Irish Bond Lives On

Kindred Spirits - The Choctaw-Irish Bond Lives On https://youtu.be/dhO2sIRaDPc  [9:30 minutes] ChoctawNationOK 14.3K subscribers 44,835 views • Mar 17, 2016 • The story begins in 1831, when the Choctaw people were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands in Mississippi. A few years later, Choctaws learned of people starving in Ireland. Only sixteen years had passed since the Choctaws had faced hunger and death on the first Trail of Tears and a great empathy was felt when they heard such a similar tale coming from across the ocean. Individual Choctaws collected and donated $170 in 1847 to assist the Irish people. SUBSCRIBE! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ZK...
