Description

Fighting for the freedom of all men and women, meet the black heroes who sacrificed alongside their white brothers and sisters to establish the United States of America as an independent nation. Although it would be hundreds of years later before their ancestors finally experienced true freedom, these brave heroes teach all of us the power of believing in and committing to a dream no matter the cost. Within these pages, students learn about the earliest martyr, Crispus Attucks, artilleryman Austin Dabney, the brave spy James Armistead, and many others. The well-written text and black and white photographs make history come alive. Required title within the Beautiful Feet Early American History curriculum for grades 7-9.

Publisher's Description of Black Heroes of the American Revolution
Crispus Attucks is known as the escaped slave whose freedom ended when he died in the Boston Massacre, but there are many other lesser-known black men and women who made enormous contributions to U.S. independence. Readers will discover Edward Hector, the brave wagoner of Brandywine; artilleryman and slave Austin Dabney; William Lee, the aide and closest companion of George Washington throughout the war; and many others.

Using quality classical or award-winning literature, students learn history with a focus on gaining understanding, perspective, and critical thinking skills. Learning to analyze, think independently, choose and defend opinions with evidence, and empathy are the goals of this study.
