Change for African Americans

Everyone has a change or either wants a change in them as a person or in life.In words this change happen to african americans.Africans struggle with slaver and it seemed incosistant the idea of it as a revolution,5% american was of African ancestory.This didn't change anything since the majority were slaves and obligated to work as servants.Most of them had to accept the idea of "slavery" as there natural life.

British and Loyalist critics make the Patriots as hypocrites who spoke of liberty while holding slave.The revolution inspired many slaves to demand freedom,there were there rights to have it since nothing distinguished them from the others,is nothing but there skin color who has no difference in that everyone was equal.In the northern states some slaves has a petitional legislature for emancipation,they were free form any restrain which was what the others demanded to have their freedom.About 5,000 slaves join the patriots militias,the continental army or the small continent party just in exchange for their freedom.Africans prefered spending their lives as soldier who fought than slaves who were obligated and treated with injustice.However the southern states feared,armed blacks as a threat to slaves making that at least 50,000 southern slaves to escape and join the british.

The revolution lead to emancipation on the world where slavery was not important for either the economy or the own slaves.Although laws eventually got to avoid slavery in the northern states this would stop discrimination by others,many northerns sold their slaves to the south before they could become free this was an act of cruelty.The legislature for emancipation with made the slaves to be free from slavery and any restrain failed in the south were slaves amounted about 1/3 of the population become essential for the economy.

Not all the african americans had the change they expected in their lives but those who did are still making it.About 20,000 southern slaves had been free including 300 who were freed  by George Washington.
