After viewing/reading the course page and conducting your own research via the GMC library and course text book, respond to the following prompt. Keep in mind that this is not a discussion forum. This is a writing assignment.
You will not be responding to other student’s posts; you will simply be posting your response to the prompt below.Remember to follow all guidelines below:
In at least two well-developed paragraphs (and a paragraph is at least five to seven sentences) discuss:
Was the American Revolution, revolutionary? Meaning, many historians argue that yes a new government was created and amazingly survived.
That is astounding and they were really creating something wholly different than other governments from around the world. However, for many people their lives the day after the war did not look any different from their lives before the war.
They had the same jobs, the same economic status, political benefits or exclusions. Positions of power did not change for many white men and women and certainly not for American Indians and slaves.
With these two different ideas in mind about the Revolution answer the question: was the American Revolution revolutionary or not and be sure to support your answers with primary and secondary sources.
