Assignment 1 - 2 -
Read through these colonists' views on Choosing Sides - The link in the middle will be read to you if you choose... Then write in your reflections...
“I come here today to offer you an opportunity to join the best side of the revolution” “If you join me, and other smart men, you will be rewarded handsomely!” “I say, the following will given unto you if you join” “200 acres of FREE land and 20 years of no taxes!” “But that's not all! Some of you may have said or done some bad things against our king or government. Don’t worry you will be forgiven of any crimes you may have done against the government.” “If join our army you will receive pay and be paid for any of your personal equipment you use” “Let me be clear. If you join my side you will get hundreds of acres of land, pay no taxes for 20 years, be paid as a soldier, and forgiven of your past crimes.” “ This is the deal of a lifetime! Join me fellow colonists!”
Which "side" will you choose - A or B? What do you most support about their words? What concerns you the most? What do you see that could be an effective consequence? Do you feel that employment and different job occupations "forced" you into a certain side?
“My deal is much better! So listen to me my fellow colonists.” “If you join my side of the revolution I will make sure you do not lose any of the land you already have!” “Even more important is that you will be free of a power hungry ruler who constantly makes unfair laws and taxes us!” “Our army offers you a short-term contract of only serving 6 months terms and you get to keep your rank if you were in the other guy’s military. So if you were a general in his army then you could be general in my army.” “I know land is very important to us colonists, so if you join our army you will be paid so you could buy land, which is hard to come by.” “Finally, if you enlist today, you will be paid a bonus of 15 pounds and that could buy you at least 30 acres or more of land here in Colonial North Carolina.” “So don’t wait and come join my side of the revolution!”
