The correct answer is "A"

Irish immigration in the United States is one of the most important migratory phenomena from Europe, both nationally and internationally due to the magnitude of Irish emigration to other countries in the world, especially to the United States of America.

Most of the Irish Americans who emigrated to the US UU They were Catholics and most of them still are, a denomination that made them suffer a lot of discrimination. Many Irish emigrated from the island to the United States in the wake of the Great Irish Famine.

Although the majority of the Irish emigrants spoke English in the wake of the English colonization of Ireland and the practical destruction of their Gaelic language, employers preferred workers of German origin although they rarely spoke English when they arrived. This racism was very common in those times and there were few jobs where the Irish could work or live without discrimination
