We explore the pivotal moments of the "American Revolution," beginning with the "Battles of Lexington and Concord." This video details how the conflict quickly spread throughout "colonial America," drawing in ordinary people from across the nascent "United States." Join us for a look into a critical period of "American history."
In this cinematic, character-driven episode, historian Lisa Weakland reveals how rebellion erupted across the colonies in the spring of 1775—not in one place, but everywhere at once. From Virginia’s Gunpowder Incident to the New York Armory Raid, from the capture of Skenesboro to the Battle of Chelsea Creek, this is the story of a continent catching fire.
🔥 Lord Dunmore’s midnight gunpowder raid
🔥 Patrick Henry’s militia march
🔥 Isaac Sears and the Sons of Liberty seize New York’s armory
🔥 Samuel Herrick and the Green Mountain Boys secure Lake Champlain
