Question

How did Irish immigrants contribute to the building of the Erie Canal ?

Answer 1

⭐️The answer is ⭐️


Irish Slaves Built the Erie Canal. If it were not for white “slave” labor, Clinton's big ditch—the Erie Canal—would not have been realized and the Hudson River and Lake Erie never connected. Irish immigrants would become the Northern slave of Hamiltonian “internal improvements” in the early 19th century.Feb
