The Scot-Irish weren't considered white until the 1800s. Not until they were used as a buffer class between the Black slaves and cacs. Its why they were overpresented as the plantation overseers, slave catchers and eventually, law enforcement.
Race is a social construct, and so as society changes, so does the definition of race. Yes, the Irish are white, in 2023. But not in 1776. They were barely western European back then. They would agree as well.....the Irish hated most Europeans for centuries.

It's funny how you read their white ancestors writing this only for these clowns to turn around and say the Moors weren't black. Obviously there were enough black people in Spain/Portugal that they felt the need to write this down.
