Write A Letter To The Colonists
Dear Alice

I haven’t seen you in awhile and I am not sure if I will ever again. I want you to know my loving sister that I am joining the rebellion against Britain. King George III and the Parliament have been wrongfully abusing their power; us colonists are tired of their exploitation and resent being treated as lower beings. Alice I hope you will understand what I am trying to say in this letter; that I am fighting for justice, do not think that I am throwing my life away, I hope that you will respect what I am fighting for. The colonist and I are above tyranny, we hope to make a more fair and just government and live in a country that I am proud to say I helped make.

Alice, what I am fighting for is justice, these inequitable acts

    Letter From Timmy's Reactions To The American Revolution

    Sister, did you know that the raw materials that come into England are bought from us colonies at an extraordinary inexpensive price? Perhaps so but did you that the then finished products are brought to the colonies at an outrageous price even though we provided the raw materials? We as struggling colonists also do not agree that we only serve the purpose of enriching those in our founding country. Because of the mother country´s injustices many colonist resent not being able to manufacture our own raw materials. Oh Sister, if this is not a single act of tyranny that what…

    Letter To John Hancock's Declaration Of Independence

    Oh my gosh, the Declaration of Independence has been signed! On August 2, 1776 we finally became independent! John Hancock signed his name so big that he said that King George can see his signature without his spectacles! He is saying that every time you sign something you should call it a John Hancock. “There, I guess King George will be able to read that without his spectacles!” 56 people signed the Declaration Of Independence including John Hancock, the oldest signer Ben Franklin, John and Samuel Adams and of course the author of the Declaration Of Independence Thomas Jefferson! (Of course the rest of the second continental congress signed to!) They’re where even some people chanting “WE ARE FREE, WE ARE FREE!…

    Persuasive Letter To The Columbian Exchange

    Dear Ms UN Secretary General, Imagine our planet as a spaceship. In preparation for a long, deep space voyage, the spaceship carries everything its astronauts need to survive. This spaceship provides you with all the necessities for life, just like planet Earth. There are no grocery stores, highways, burning industrial factories or gas stations on the spaceship. Most of the spaceship's systems are powered by the sun's radiation. Freshwater and clean air will be continuously recycled 24/7. Not only do you have to think about all the things you will need to survive, you have to consider the consequences of those things in terms of the wastes created and recycled. The crew are constantly engaged in managing the resources as carefully as possible.…

    English Liberties In Colonial America

    The development of America’s government, and social structure that we know today started to form after the first colonies were established. During the beginning of the eighteenth century in America the thought of English liberties started to take root with these colonists. When looking at the statement “during the first half of the eighteenth century, new ideas of English liberty had little effect on power relations in colonial America; throughout this period, the upper classes retained their dominance of colonial affairs” we can see how this is persuasive and not. This statement is persuasive because these liberties provided more power to the upper class in government, and can be less persuasive because the lower class would gain more power…
