Road to Revolution
About some key people, conflicts, and coperations
Introduction
“It is not in the still calm of life that great characters are formed. The habits of a vigorous mind are formed in contending with difficulties. Great necessities call out great virtues."
~Abigail Adams
This is what the daughters of liberty would say, would do, that people wish they had the courage to do, their boycotts also demonstrated their loyalty. The Daughters of Liberty, the Boston Massacre, John Adams, and paul revere all had a big role in the events occurring in the pre-war.
John Adams
Paul Revere
The Boston Massacre
The daughters of liberty
The daughters of liberty was started because of women not liking what the british were doing and wanted to make an impact that would leave a mark as one of the first ideas of rebellion. This group of rebellious ladies would show their loyalty by boycotting english goods, they would learn to make their own, would not drink tea, and would even reject british "dates". They were patriots, these women brought the attention to politics that women can be just as useful. They also made women relevant in the pre-war and in revolutionary war.
Conclusion
John Adams is connected to the Boston Massacre because he was a lawyer for some of the soldiers that had shot some Boston residents. Daughters of liberty are related to the revolutionary war because of their boycotting to provoke the war. In conclusion they are all connected in some way, and they all wanted the same thing. Freedom and independence.
