Slide3

Political and Economic Factors

Slide4

Learning Objective

You will be able to explain major political and economic factors leading to the American Revolution, including the French and Indian War, the Stamp Act, the Tea Act, and Intolerable Acts as well as American resistance to these acts through boycotts, petitions, and congresses.

Slide5

Political and Economic Reasons for the Revolutionary War

Political

Does the Parliament of the colonial assemblies have the right to impose taxes?

Economic

The need for taxes after the French and Indian War

The power of the colonists to boycott British goods and force British merchants to appeal to Parliament to repeal the Stamp Act

Slide6

Images 1 & 2

Study the two maps.

Make observations in your notebook.

How are they alike and different?

North America in 1750

North America in 1763

Slide7

The French and Indian War

As we know, the French and Indian War was fought between the British and the French over land in the Ohio River Valley.

Remember? Both the French and the British claimed this land

Land = Power!!!!

The British won the war but at a HUGE cost!

The British now had a large debt (money that they owe)

Slide8

The French and Indian War

Somebody

Wanted

But

So

Slide9

The French and Indian War

The British decided that the debt should be paid in American taxes.

The British thought this because they fought for the American’s land

This changed the way the British government worked.

In the past, the British government ignore what was happening in the colonies and allowed the colonies to set their own rules and taxes.

Slide10

The French and Indian War

The taxes drastically changed the relationship between the colonies and the British.

Colonies believed it was the right of their colonial assemblies to impose taxes, NOT the right of the King or Parliament

The colonial assemblies resisted the new policies through protests and boycotts of British goods

Slide11

The Stamp Act

The stamp act was a tax on all papers (for example, legal documents and newspapers)

This meant they had to pay more money for these types of goods

Slide12

Slide13

Slide14

Primary Document

Make some observations about what you see.

What you think is happening?

Why?

Read, “The Death Head Stamp”, pp. 8-9 from

Liberty

Q: What were

the

colonists’

reactions?

Slide15

Colonists’ Reactions to the Stamp Act

Colonists were very unhappy with the Stamp Act!

They would cry “no taxation without representation!”

What did that mean?!

They

wanted a colonial representative in Parliament in order to represent what the colonists wanted.

Except… they didn’t

really

want a representative because they know the representative would be outvoted.

Colonists organized a “Stamp Act Congress”

They sent a petition to the King and boycotted British goods

This led to the repeal of the Stamp ActThey also created the “Sons and Daughters of Liberty”

Slide16

The Tea Act

This act was NOT a tax

This act made it so the Americans could ONLY buy tea from the British East India Company.

When you can only buy a good from one company it is called a

monopoly

.

The Sons of Liberty wanted to boycott the purchase of tea because it was British good

However, the Sons of Liberty were worried that people would still buy the tea since it was inexpensive

Slide17

The Boston Tea Party

In Boston colonials boarded a British ship and through tea overboard

They were led by John Adams

Video of John Adams:

These actions led Parliament to pass the “Intolerable Acts”

Slide22

The Intolerable Acts

The Intolerable Acts closed the Boston Harbor and took away the right of the colony of Massachusetts to govern itself

Originally the British called these the Coercive Acts because they were trying to coerce, or force, the colonists to pay for the dumped tea and recognized the right of Parliament to make taxes for the colonies.

Slide23

Colonists’ Responses to the Intolerable Acts

Colonists created Committees of Correspondence to communicate their situations to each other.

They sent their committees to “The First Continental Congress”

The Continental Congress established a boycott on all trade with the British and told Americans to arm themselves.

This led to the battle of Lexington and Concord which started the Revolutionary War.

Example:

Slide28

The Declaration of Independence

Slide29

Learning Objective

You will be able to explain the significance of major ideas and philosophies of government reflected in the Declaration of Independence.

Slide30

Declaration of Independence July 4, 1776

Four Major Ideas of the Declaration of Independence

“All men are created equal”

African Americans and women were not created equal

“…they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

Rights are not given by the government, but rather people are born with their rights

“To secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

The purpose of government is to protect the people

“Whenever any form of governments becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it.”

If the government does not protect the rights of people, then the people can change it.

Slide31

Declaration of Independence cont.

The Declaration of Independence also includes a list of grievances against King George III to show why we had to abolish the English government and start our own.

The Declaration ends with a formal statement saying America is independent of England.

Slide38

Battle of Lexington and Concord

April 19, 1775

British soldiers left Boston and headed to Lexington to collect weapons stored there by John Hancock and Samuel Adams.

Paul Revere, William Dawes, and Samuel Prescott warned colonists the British were on the way.

British soldiers defeated minutemen in Lexington but the ammunition stores were well hidden and the leaders of the rebellion escaped.

Militiamen in Concord were joined by many, many minutemen and they defeated the British soldiers!

Slide40

Battle of Bunker Hill

June 17, 1775

British soldiers slept off the Boston shore while Continental forces built a fort up on a hill.

When the British awoke, they charged up the hill but retreated after they encountered heavy Continental fire.

This happened once more but upon the third charge, the Continentals were out of

ammunition

The untrained Americans had to surrender but they did kill a large number of British

Importance:

Proved Americans could stand up to the British

Americans would need allies to supply ammo

Battle of Saratoga

October 7, 1777

This battle was a TURNING POINT in the war!

The Americans defeated the British!

Because of the victory, French, Spanish, and Dutch colonists became American allies!

Importance:

The alliance with the French, Spanish and Dutch provided help through ships, soldiers, supplies, and financial help.

(Remember; we learned from the Battle of Bunker Hill that we needed that)

Turning Point Writing

Slide43

Battles in Charleston

The first time the British attacked Charleston they were unsuccessful because of the resistance at Fort Moultrie

But, the British were successful the 2

nd

time around

Charleston was attacked by the British blockading Charleston Harbor and didn’t allow supplies to come in or out

Soon the Patriots were fighting against the British and loyalists using hit and run tactics.

Slide44

Cowpens

The partisan forces attacked the British but then tricked them by retreating

The British thought the Americans were retreating, but really the Continental Army was waiting for them.

The Americans won and the British had to go northward to Virginia

Importance:

Showed the cooperation

between the Continental

Army and the irregular

partisan forces

Slide45

Yorktown

September 28, 1781

The French Navy helped George Washington and his army blockade the harbor (just like the British blockaded Charleston Harbor)

The blockade prevented British ships from entering the harbor and therefore wouldn’t allow the British to escape the Americans on land

The British were stuck—so they surrendered

A peace treaty was

negociated

by Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay. It was called the Treaty of Paris

Importance:

1. Ends

the war!

Notebook Activity

Slide49

Slavery, Women, and Native Americans

Slide50

Learning Objective

You will be able to explain how the American Revolution affected attitudes toward slavery, women, and Native Americans.

Slide51

African Americans and the War

Both free and enslaved African Americans fought on both sides during the war

Some enslaved African Americans were promised that at the end of the war they would become free.

Unfortunately, many of these promises were not kept.

Slide52

Emancipation of Slaves

In the North

States in the North freed their slaves

They were not as dependent on slave labor as the South

In the South

Southerner landowners depended on their slaves to work on their plantations

Southerners were scared if they freed the African Americans then they would outnumber them so they made strict slave codes

The invention of the cotton gin made Southerners even more dependent on slave labor in order to make money.

According to the Declaration of Independence “all men are created equal.”

Slide53

Women

Women were expected to work the farms or run family businesses during the war.

The took care of their children and farms since their husbands were gone

Some women were nurses or cooks in the army

Some women even pretended to be men so they could fight in the war!

Martha

Washington and Mary Ludwig Hayes served alongside their husbands

Despite their important contributions, women were not allowed to vote nor have a say in government after the war.

Slide54

Women in the Military

Slide55

Women in the American Revolution

Slide56

Native Americans

The end of the French and Indian War was bad for the Native Americans because they lost their French allies

Native Americans were pushed west of the Appalachian Mountains

The Land Ordinance of 1785 pushed the Native Americans farther and farther west.
