  
The American Revolution
ended two centuries of British rule for
most of the North
American colonies and created the mode.UnitedStates of America. The Revolutionary
era was both
exhilarating
and disturbing---a time of progress for some,
dislocation for
others. In the wake of the Revolution came events as varied as the drafting
and ratification of the Constitution of the
United States
of America and the rebellions of slaves who saw the
contrast between
slavery and proclamations of liberty. The
television series
Liberty! offers us a chance to learn about the
Revolution and
to reflect on the Revolutionary legacy. The
Revolution website
offers a chance to join in national discussions of
American revolutionary
origins.
