The idea of racism and slavery was being more rebelled against and numerous movements occurred with the goal of abolition of slavery.

It is amazing how America, a country built on equity, liberty, and happiness, treated Indians, Cherokees especially, forcing them to relocate to more deplorable lands. Similarly, women had an inferior status and were held dependent on men.
In Thomas Jefferson's vision, the independent farmer who works his land for himself and market could have enjoyed the true liberty in America. However, Jefferson was a wealthy slave owner, so a supporter of slavery even though he dressed as a commoner. #NoSignal312andTJ
To keep a balance between free and slave states, North and South in the United States, the Missouri Compromise admitted Missouri as a slave state and Main as a free state. Instead of this, it accentuated the problems between Northern and southern states. #NoSignal312andTJ

The paradox - "Yet while Americans were (later) fighting for their own independence and liberty, they harshly punished slaves caught fighting for their own lives." So...The salves did not have the right to fight to change their fate?π #NoSignal312TalksAboutARevolution
It must have been hard for the British colonists to be in the middle between their mother country and their colonies' interest. Unfortunately, GB considered its colonists as a great source of revenue and nothing more.British colonists= slaves. #NoSignal312TalksAboutARevolution
It was an interesting thing how GB wanted to induce to the colonists the idea that the war took place in their interest, so they must help pay off the war cost.

I like Puritans' determination to reinvent their religion, but I do not like their attitude vis-a-vis women's rights and status.

"Southern colonists were concerned with making money in the tobacco industry, and everything else had to fit into that goal."( Lecture, pg. 9) #NoSignal312GoesSouth
Good News for Spain!
I believed that I discovered the new land, Asia, but the people are so poor in everything. We cannot understand one another, but the area is full of resources.
