The Road to Revolution

Warm- Up Free Response: In your opinion, were the Colonists right or self righteous in regards to the actions taken by the throne in a an attempt to cover the cost of a war that directly benefited the colonists. Give me at least 4-5 sentences – PROVE IT

Today’s Main Ideas Roots of the Revolution British Policy and Colonial reaction Imperial / American Strengths and weaknesses

Roots of the Revolution- 2 ideas Republicanism and a society focused on the common good “Radical Whigs” warning citizens to watch out for corruption

Salutary Neglect ends because… England begins enforcing old policies long forgotten New policies began to be issued When colonists objected, British responded without care Good luck finding a pic of salutary neglect

Here come the ACTS…. Britain still has a large debt from war Navigation Laws begin to be enforced (remember those?) Sugar Act of 1764 (West Indies) increased taxes on imported sugar

ACTS Cont. Quartering Act of 1765 Stamp Act of 1765 Stamp Act Congress of 1765 brings together delegates from 9 colonies

Why is Stamp Act Congress Important? Meeting began to erode sectional suspicions Rivalry between colonies takes a back burner One of the first steps towards intercolonial unity Leads to NONIMPORTATION AGREEMENTS

Nonimportation Agreements Move towards unionism Agreement not to import British Goods Sons of Liberty / Daughters of Liberty enforce Stamp Act repelled but Declaratory Act passed claiming British rights

Townshend Acts Passed in 1767 Tax on glass, white lead, paper, paint and tea British send troops to patrol sensing unrest March 5, 1770 = Boston Massacre

Committees of Correspondence Formed by Samuel Adams (also leader of Sons/Daughters of Liberty) Created to maintain communication with other colonies Key component of unifying colonies against England

Boston Tea Party British East India Company given monopoly to sell tea in America Thought to be a trick to add tax- colonists reject tea Board and Dump

What Were the Intolerable Acts 1774 – To punish for Boston Tea Party Restricted Town Meetings If Official killed a colonist they were tried in England Closed Boston harbor until damages were paid

Continental Congress st Continental Congress Declarations of Rights The Association

Bloodshed April Lexington British Troops sent to take gunpowder and provisions from Samuel Adams and John Hancock 8 Americans shot and killed As British moved to Concord they were met with resistance – 300 Casualties and 70 Dead (This is a war)

Strengths and weaknesses British Strengths – 3 times the population, economic wealth and Navy Weakness – Rebellion brewing in Ireland, France still mad, Military all over Army in America far from home America Strengths – French support, Home field advantage Weaknesses – No metallic money so paper “Continental Money” depreciates a lot

Be the Man – Revolutionary Style Take out your Wood book and use the following sections to become one of the following: Roles: Sam Adams Son of Liberty – A loyalist – 100 John Adams – Thomas Paine – Jefferson – John Locke – 104 Washington –

Write it up Create a brief summation of the individual you represented and their role in the conflicts that lead to Revolution
