  • Great video! Loved it! I would love to know who or what musicians are playing the music accompanying the video and the title of the musical piece.  Excellent all the way around. Thank you!

  • The music is by Moving Hearts and the song is called "The Storm". Glad you liked it.

  • I found their "Live in Dublin" album on ITunes and downloaded it. Many thanks.

  • No problem.

  • Nice work. You should make a 90 minute Documentary on this. You cover so much in a few minutes, it would be interesting to bring it all together with more education and historical references.

  • I did a complete four part radio documentary of two hours covering all these topics in 1992. It was called "Ancient Circles". I have thought for a long time about making it into a film. Thanks for the encouragement. I already have the sound track on my computer.

  • What has irish history to do with the indians?

  • @nk11090 cos they are fighting imperialism

  • @nk11090 Yea wat u said

  • whats with all the red indian?

  • @dale1966gto "truth is, we would have been much better off if wild indians hadn't greeted us with arrows. we didn't randomly slaughter these people, as history books today would have you believe. todays history books are useless propoganda"

    the ONLY correct portion of your statement is that history books are useless propoganda! if not for those so called "wild indians" most of the original settlers would have NOT made it through their 1st winter!

  • @vlana123 thanks for that info.

    i know it might be hard to bring up family history. But im glad you shared.

    it was great to hear the view of the irish from that point of history.

  • I researched my family history. I hate to bring up slavery, but it is part of my past. My grandfather's mother was owned by Germans ,but my grandfather's mother was owned by Irish. The German slave owners beat and raped my ancestors. The Irish owners would not beat and rape their slaves- treated them like family. After slavery they defended them in court when they got in trouble and helped them purchase land. The son of slave owner lived with my ggg-grandmother and had many children.
