Headley[edit]

The J.T. Headley reference I've added (text online), offers more detail and presents the facts about the 1833 disturbance that was a preamble. Nativism and Tammany Hall need to be linked. --Wetman 00:28, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But was it used as a reference for the text in this article? I thought that was the purpose of the References section. -- JHunterJ 11:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In this collaborative writing, it's a bit trickier than that. We certainly shouldn't ever remove references that have been actively used, but it's OK (encouraged even) for people to add confirming references after the fact. - Jmabel | Talk 05:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Headley on-line text might even be employed now by anyone to give added depth and context to the article. --Wetman 08:52, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hope so. Not high on my own list right now... - Jmabel | Talk 04:32, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Similarity to Draft Riots[edit]

"lay in the combination of nativism and abolitionism among Protestants who had controlled the booming city since the American Revolutionary War, and fear and resentment of blacks among the growing underclass of Irish immigrants and their kin. In 1827, Britain repealed legislation controlling and restricting emigration from Ireland, and 20,000 Irish emigrated; by 1835 over 30,000 Irish arrived in New York annually."

Seems like the root causes and actions involved in these 1833-34 incidents are basically the same as those that would occur in the Draft Riots three decades later, albeit without the fatalities. Quis separabit? 01:33, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Irish?[edit]

Why are the Irish mentioned? Were they the rioters? Were the anti-abolitionists rioting because they did not like the Irish? --142.163.195.90 (talk) 22:23, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
