The beastly caricature of the Irish man also portray him as angry, could be because of the competition for jobs between newly arrived Blacks from Southern plantations. It is also not surprising for the appearance and behavior of the Irish Caricature, during this juncture in American History, Irish men were been forcefully conscripted in the Union army to fight what they considered as a “Black man’s war” (New Yorker, October 1998).
