He fought for Irish freedom… then turned his fire on American slavery.
Meet Daniel O’Connell, the Irish legend who didn’t just challenge the British Empire—he called out slaveholders across the Atlantic, including Irish-Americans who betrayed Black people for white acceptance.

He called out hypocrisy. He challenged his own people. And he inspired Frederick Douglass himself.
