Rated 2 out of 5 by from Fake Washington Quote < Three Minutes In 2:10 - Your claim of George Washington's quote "whoever could arm the negro faster" is a misattribution. There's no historical documentation or secondary party verification. The quote is forged from the substance of a letter from George Washington to John Hancock on 9/24/1777. "I am much apprehensive that General Howe will, in pursuance of his plan of drawing us down to the neighbourhood of his shipping, endeavour to raise Negroes on the same terms with the Whites, in order to mix them in his Corps of Invalids, which will occasion infinite mischief and perplexity. This, I have always understood, was a part of their plan, and I hope Congress will consider of the matter in time, and prevent it, by such means as are in their power." In this letter, Washington expresses concern that British General William Howe may attempt to recruit black soldiers for the British army, and suggests that Congress take action to prevent this from happening.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ready for a full series This is a superb overview of a topic not often covered in history courses. I consider my knowledge of the American Revolution as "advanced," yet much of the lecture was eye-opening. The lecture has a good mix of personal stories and the larger picture. It also describes the immense impact of slavery and the shame of this country's "original sin." I hope Wondrium will proceed with a full series on this topic.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Quality for My Needs Thank you for such a rich and informative essay on Black Patriots in the American Revolution. Information that demonstrates the African-American's participation in and contribution to every historical event of America's growth. Excellent, well delivered, information, some of which was new to me. I will listen to this lecture multiple times. Again, thank you.
