...when the irish brigades
marched through the streets...
:16:05
...New york was a city
full of tribes.
:16:07
War chiefs. Rich and poor.
:16:13
Lincoln will make all
white men slaves!
:16:15
It wasn't a city really.
:16:17
It was more a furnace.
:16:19
Where cities someday
might be forged.
:16:22
That's the spirit boys.
:16:24
Go off and die for your
blackie friends.
:16:28
We should have run a better man against
Lincoln when we had the chance.
:16:33
They are trying to say ,we
are no different than niggers.
:16:36
You ain't.
:16:41
Go back to Africa,
niggers!
:16:47
The angriest talk was of
the new conscription act.
:16:51
The first draft in Union
history.
:17:05
Join the army lads. Three square
meals a day and good pay.
:17:09
When the Irish came, the city was
in a fever.
:17:12
Since the time of the great famine
they'd come streaming off the boats.
:17:17
And they got a right warm welcome.
:17:19
Go back to Ireland, you
dumb Mick!
:17:20
You'll remember that!
:17:22
Get back on the boat, Paddy!
:17:24
I came only 2 hours down
river from Hell Gate...
:17:28
..but they all took me
for an immigrant.
:17:30
Why not?
:17:31
There were a 1000 different
accents in New York..
:17:34
..and to the Natives you see,
they were all the same.
:17:39
Come here to take the chill off
your soul and the weight off your heart.
:17:43
Welcome to America son, your long
arduous journey is over.
:17:46
Go back to your own country.
:17:48
Vote Tammany!
:17:49
America for Americans!
:17:56
New York loved William
Tweed and hated him.
