How Did Colonial America Undemocratic

Colonization DBQ Colonial America showed democratic growth socially and religiously, but was also undemocratic because of restrictions on some social groups and unequal politics. In the beginning of the American colonies, the people started creating new ways of government. One of these ways was democracy. The colonies were democratic because they began allowing the citizens to have a say in government (Doc 3). If the people did not like how their government was run they could produce their own ideas and could question the leaders if they were wronged. Colonists were able to vote for people to represent them or their area in a legislature (Doc 6). Christians in the colonies were starting to receive freedom of religion as well (Doc 1).
