@Becky The colonists didnt need to change the way the british thought because they werent taking over the british. They were freeing themselves from the British. And I think you assume too much to say that every suppressed person wants to be freed.

I am not for anarchy. You are assuming that because of the things I am saying but what Im trying to explain to you is that freedom is anarchy. That doesnt mean I am for freedom.

Ofcourse you arent, and neither am I

No. Yes they fought and many people died and they lost, but after that they didn't stop, slavery still went on it simply took a new form, black people were rented land which they paid with crops. It didnt pay enough so they stayed in debt to their white masters. It was a legal slavery. Black people didnt vote because in the south black people were illiterate from being denied education and even if they were literate somehow they were given a "literacy test" that was impossible to pass so that still they could not vote, and lets not for get the KKK there threatening to kill you if you even had the courage to vote in the first place or segregation, which coincidentally the white version over everything was better. Its because their belief was that whites were superior and blacks were inferior.
