    1. It’s crazy how much those bright red uniforms stand out… I think the kaki was introduced shortly after this date.

    2. TreeOfReckoning on

      Could someone please explain how Britain’s treatment of the Irish wasn’t genocide? Forced evictions, penal laws, cultural and economic suppression… seems at least genocide adjacent.

    3. Its fake picture. The Irish lived in the hovel on the right. The whitewashed building was the pig sty.
