Summary of passage

In the 1800s, Irish people came to America during the Irish Immigration due to the Potato Famine. The famine caused starvation as potatoes were the main food source and crops were destroyed by disease. Many families left Ireland for America seeking work and opportunities. The journey was long and dangerous on crowded ships with harsh conditions. Irish immigrants faced challenges in America, living in crowded neighborhoods and struggling to find work. Despite challenges, they found success in factories, mines, and as farmers. They brought their culture, celebrating St. Patrick’s Day and sharing music and dance. Irish Immigration is a reminder of immigrant struggles and contributions to American history.
