Building Knowledge Together
While it may seem that revolutionary fervor was brewing in the American colonies, choosing sides and deciding whether to fight in the war was far from an easy choice for American colonists. The great majority were neutral or Loyalists.
Patriots tended to be younger while Loyalists were older folk with more to lose. The English never fully trusted the Loyalists. Patriots seized their property, and even imprisoned and executed others. More than 100,000 Loyalists left America when the war ended.
Building Knowledge Together
On December 16, 1773, a band of Bostonians protested the Stamp, Sugar, and Tea Acts and the concept of “no taxation without representation” by dressing up as Native Americans from the Mohawk tribe, boarding British ships, and dumping 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor, which would cost nearly $1 million today.

Think-Pair-Share: How is this engraving an example of a BIASED primary source?
The Boston Massacre was a deadly confrontation on March 5, 1770, in which British soldiers shot and killed five people while being harassed by a group of Bostonians led by Crispus Attucks, a “mulatto“ or mixed race man who was credited as the leader or instigator of the event, depending on which way you look at the incident.
Both of these prints can be considered art as well as propaganda, which spread ideas or statements that are often false or exaggerated in order to help a cause, a political leader, a government.
Known for his midnight ride to warn the colonists about a British attack, Paul Revere created the print on the left within three weeks of the event.
The print on the right, however, was created right before the Civil War by a lesser known American abolitionist, James Wells Champney, in the mid-1850s.
