Opportunities, challenges presented by the American Revolution both free and enslaved Black American

Hi Levi, what is the question here?

What were the opportunities and challenges presented by the American
Revolution for both free and enslaved Black Americans?

The Revolution brought modification for a few black folks, although nothing coming full equality. The brave military support of African Americans along with the revolutionary soul ended slavery in New England nearly instantly. A number of the creators compared slavery in principle. Personal manumissions increased after the Revolution.

However, free blacks in the North and South faced persistent discrimination in almost every part of life, especially employment, home, and schooling. A number of the creators expected that slavery would finally vanish in the American South. When cotton became king in the South after 1800, this expectation expired. The announcement of individual equality in the Declaration of Independence wasn't completely forgotten, yet. It stayed as an ideal that may be appealed to by abolitionists and civil rights activists during the subsequent decades.

The warfare offered many slaves the possibility to flee bondage by linking the British origin (between twenty and ten million slaves gained freedom on account of the Revolution). The battle offered the perfect stage for slave revolts to emerge as willing resistors had been welcome allies. After the war, lots of African American Loyalists transferred into Sierra Leone, Canada or England to flee both the challenges posed with a significantly racialized American society at which whiteness became equated with power and freedom.
