Iirc, Irish people were not considered white and were discriminated against.
Irish people, Jewish people, Polish people... the list goes on. 'Whiteness' was manufactured to exclude entire groups of people for political purposes.
Benjamin Franklin considered Germans to be swarthy, Lmao
Anyway, if you asked Gemini to give you images of 18th century German-Americans it would give you images of Asians, Africans, etc.
