Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The Colored Patriots of the American Revolution,' readers are treated to a meticulously curated anthology that sheds light on the oft-overlooked contributions of African American heroes in the foundational moments of the United States. The collection is notable not only for its rich diversity of stylesranging from narrative essays to biographical sketchesbut also for its profound reevaluation of historical narratives typically dominated by Eurocentric perspectives. This anthology stands out as a seminal collection that enriches our understanding of the American Revolution, highlighting stories of valor and dedication that have remained in the shadows for far too long. The contributing authors, Harriet Beecher Stowe and William Cooper Nell, bring a wealth of knowledge and personal commitment to the project. Stowe is already celebrated for her antislavery novel 'Uncle Toms Cabin,' while Nell is recognized as one of the first African American historians. Both authors contribute not just stories but a recontextualization of history, aligning the anthology with movements of social justice and historical reclamation. Their work collectively advocates for a more inclusive view of America's past, celebrating the contributions of African Americans to the nations foundational struggle. This anthology is an essential read for anyone seeking to broaden their understanding of the American Revolution through the lens of diversity and inclusion. Offering a confluence of narratives that have been excluded from mainstream historical accounts, 'The Colored Patriots of the American Revolution' emphasizes the importance of recognizing all contributors to Americas early battles for freedom. Readers are not merely invited to engage with history; they are encouraged to rethink and expand their understanding of it, thanks to the rigorous scholarship and passionate storytelling of Stowe and Nell. The collection is a testament to the power of literature in forging a more inclusive and accurate historical narrative, making it a valuable addition to both academic discussions and personal explorations of history.

On the 5th of March, 1851, the following petition was presented to the Massachusetts Legislature, asking an appropriation of $1,500, for the erection of a monument to the memory of Crispus Attucks, the first martyr in the Boston Massacre of March 5th, 1770: -- To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Massachusetts, in General Court assembled: The undersigned, citizens of Boston, respectfully ask that an appropriation of fifteen hundred dollars may be made by your Honorable Body, for a monument to be erected to the memory of Crispus Attucks, the first martyr of the American Revolution. WILLIAM C. NELL, CHARLES LENOX REMOND, HENRY WEEDEN, LEWIS HAYDEN, FREDERICK G. BARBADOES, JOSHUA B. SMITH, LEMUEL BURR. Boston, Feb. 22d, 1851. This petition was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs, who granted a hearing to the petitioners, in whose behalf appeared Wendell Phillips, Esq., and William C. Nell, but finally submitted an adverse report, on the ground that a boy, Christopher Snyder, was previously killed. Admitting this fact, (which was the result of a very different scene from that in which Attucks fell, ) it does not offset the claims of Attucks, and those who made the 5th of March famous in our annals -- the day which history selects as the dawn of the American...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Colored Patriots of the American Revolution shines a light on the overlooked contributions of African Americans during the Revolutionary War. First published in 1855, this seminal work by abolitionist William C. Nell features biographical sketches of black soldiers who fought courageously for America's independence. Nell's groundbreaking research documents the participation of men like Crispus Attucks, an African American martyr who was the first man shot dead by British troops during the Boston Massacre. The book also highlights black patriots like James Armistead Lafayette, an American double spy who successfully infiltrated British forces under the command of Benedict Arnold. In vivid detail, Nell records acts of heroism and sacrifice by African Americans during the nation's founding era. His book stands as an important testament to the role of black soldiers in the Revolutionary War, challenging prevailing narratives that overlooked their service and significance. More than a vital historical document, The Colored Patriots of the American Revolution makes the moral case for black liberation and equal civil rights, establishing Nell as a pioneering voice against slavery and oppression.

THIS BOOK CONSISTS OF THE COMPLETE VERSIONS OF THE TWO FOLLOWING TITLES: THE COLORED PATRIOTS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, WITH SKETCHES OF SEVERAL DISTINGUISHED COLORED PERSONS: TO WHICH IS ADDED A BRIEF SURVEY OF THE Condition and Prospects of Colored Americans. By WM. C. NELL. WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY HARRIET BEECHER STOWE. (c)1855. THE NARRATIVE OF JAMES ROBERTS, A SOLDIER UNDER GEN. WASHINGTON IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR, AND UNDER GEN. JACKSON AT THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS, IN THE WAR OF 1812: "A BATTLE WHICH COST ME A LIMB, SOME BLOOD, AND ALMOST MY LIFE." by JAMES ROBERTS (c) 1858. ________________________________________ THE colored race have been generally considered by their enemies, and sometimes even by their friends, as deficient in energy and courage. Their virtues have been supposed to be principally negative ones. This little collection of interesting incidents, made by a colored man, will redeem the character of the race from this misconception, and show how much injustice there may often be in a generally admitted idea. In considering the services of the Colored Patriots of the Revolution, we are to reflect upon them as far more magnanimous, because rendered to a nation which did not acknowledge them as citizens and equals, and in whose interests and prosperity they had less at stake. It was not for their own land they fought, not even for a land which had adopted them, but for a land which had enslaved them, and whose laws, even in freedom, oftener oppressed than protected. Bravery, under such circumstances, has a peculiar beauty and merit. "THE COLORED PATRIOTS OF THE AMERICAN."

Download or read book The First Reconstruction written by Van Gosse and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 759 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It may be difficult to imagine that a consequential black electoral politics evolved in the United States before the Civil War, for as of 1860, the overwhelming majority of African Americans remained in bondage. Yet free black men, many of them escaped slaves, steadily increased their influence in electoral politics over the course of the early American republic. Despite efforts to disfranchise them, black men voted across much of the North, sometimes in numbers sufficient to swing elections. In this meticulously-researched book, Van Gosse offers a sweeping reappraisal of the formative era of American democracy from the Constitution's ratification through Abraham Lincoln's election, chronicling the rise of an organized, visible black politics focused on the quest for citizenship, the vote, and power within the free states. Full of untold stories and thorough examinations of political battles, this book traces a First Reconstruction of black political activism following emancipation in the North. From Portland, Maine and New Bedford, Massachusetts to Brooklyn and Cleveland, black men operated as voting blocs, denouncing the notion that skin color could define citizenship.
