They debunk many of the idealized myths we tell ourselves about the country’s founding and the complex motivations of the men who championed independence.

"The American Revolution" with Ken Burns and Sarah Botstein
The version of the American Revolution many of us were taught was focussed on the ideals and principles of the revolution: Independence, democracy, liberty guaranteed by enumerated rights. And if we were taught about the actual conflict, we maybe heard of a few battles in New England and the mid-Atlantic– maybe there was a setback here and there. But the whole thing was presented as basically inevitable: Because of those ideals and principles, and maybe a dose of Providence (as some then thought as well.) By focusing on the actual conflicts of the era, and the conse...
