Statement first is true in this regard because the Spanish had a caste system that included free Africans and former slaves. Cristopher Columbus established the “first Spanish colony” in America, in what now is Haiti and The Dominic Republic.

Since the beginning, Spanish used slavery from Indigenous people in the Americas and they also brought black Africans. Spanish had “Castas”, the equivalent of racial and social hierarchies. Spanish considered slaves inferior beings.

It is true that some people of African descent were not slaves in Spain's American colonies. We know this because of the written records that have been left from that era. Although most African people in America were enslaved, some of them were able to achieve their freedom, particularly in the Spanish colonies. There were several pathways for this. Some slaves were emancipated. Other had such a small percentage of African heritage that they could be considered members of other races. Finally, some others were able to buy their freedom or achieve it through heroic and admirable deeds.

Economic - Failure of potato crop. (The Great Famine)

Religious - discrimination against the Catholic/nationalist minority by the Protestant/unionist government and police force.

Answer : Mainly because economic problems. Since potatoes were no longer available in Ireland, the Irish would starve to death since potatoes were their main resource as food.

This brings to Irish migration to the US because it offered low paying jobs for immigrants. In the end, the Irish had minimum money and enough food for themselves in America, unlike in Ireland.
