Slaves Revolts! American Indians, Convicts, & indentured Servants, plus Impressment

Patriot Lessons: American History and Civics (Constitution, Declaration of Independence, etc.)

Learn about the penultimate grievance of the Declaration of Independence which involves condemning the impressment of colonial sailors and others into service in the Royal Navy - often a death sentence due to brutal conditions. Understand how this turned Americans into slaves to the Empire and often required them fight their own people. Explore the last grievance of the Declaration of Independence which calls out the British Empire's attempt to turn slaves, convicts, indentured servants, and American Indians against the colonists. Discover how these fifth column threats backfired - instead of cowering the colonists into submission, it turned the colonists solidly against the Empire - and it also failed to rally any material support in England's attempt to crush the colonies.
