Philadelphia, ring that Bell of Freedom and protect that Constitution! 🌊🌊🌊🌊
To the folks who are commenting about "white" this and "uncomfortable" that... I think it is a good thing to show that the American Revolution wasn't just a cartoon of George Washington and the cherry tree and Hamilton rapping his way through history. But I get the feeling that these kinds of comments imply that the Founding Fathers were somehow morally bad because everything they did wasn't 100% perfect in light of the 21st century context.
What is amazing about that generation was that they created a governmental structure that had never existed before and that could grow and change as times change and could accommodate a pluralistic set of ideals that today have to work for 327 million citizens. I challenge any of the detractors to consider their own lack of perfection and whether you could have done any better in the 1770s and 1780s.
Martin Luther King Jr. said, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." 243 years after the Declaration of Independence, we can't say that the US government or the citizens of our country are perfect, but I believe we are more perfect today than ever before. As we prepare to celebrate the 4th of July in 2019, we should celebrate without reservation even though the new America that revolutionized government in 1776 wasn't the perfect place that TH-cam comments would have preferred.
Agreed. The Founders and those that fought this American Revolution did so at a time when the common person in EVERY other nation had limited (or no) freedoms. It wasn't that people wanted to be from Britain but British ways. The British (and other nations) went on to subjugate tens of millions of people around the world.
While the United States wasn't perfect, it didn't colonize or create an empire. Eventually (through a civil war, and constitutional amendments) Any one could come here, become a part of the culture, become a citizen, find opportunity and make decisions.
@Michael Cristian To your point, as early as the 1810's, the future New York City saw a slow, yet steady flow of Hispanics migrating to my future borough of The Bronx after the Revolution! In those times, the city was broken up into small villages. My region would have lied near the Town of Westchester (a.k.a. the future Westchester Square reigion.) A resident of Cuban descent named M. Lopez was documented to have resided in this town as early as 1813! As a Puerto Rican American, I take pride in the Hispanic lineage of Our National History...🇵🇷🇺🇸😎
im glad some people can see this, I just hope that todays youth sees and experiences how freedom isnt free.
Professional and entertaining. Thank you!!
This is so fascinating, I’m glad we shed light on all colors, native people , and all walks of life. They didn’t teach you this in school. It was the little neatly packaged interpretation of what they wanted you to know. History has a passion, a strength , perseverance , and most all people who have shaped it . We need to recognize that. And give credit to all who have scarified and forged there way for themselves and all of us.
"They didn’t teach you this in school" umm thats not true I'm a teacher I teach all this stuff. Most kids don't pay attention in class. Why aren't you blaming kids and parents who don't value learning?
“They dont teach you this in school” yeahhhh but i got set this video to watch for homework
My 6th Great-grandfather Samuel Trivett was at Valley Forge with George Washington. I have always had pride in my heart for this great country. Knowing that I have a grandfather who fought and died in the Revolutionary War.
This was a spectacular piece of history. Thank you
Thank you!🙏 We must appreciate and tell the whole story of America; it informs, is healing and unifying, and is invigorating.
I love you guys. I've watched CBS Sunday since Charles Curralt in the early 80s
And people have never heard of it, think its news ha
Yet you couldn’t spell Charles Kuralt’s name right
Some black men fought for the revolution. During the winter at Valley Forge in particular there were a lot of blacks who were fighting for the revolution. That was one hard winter. Very hard. Most modern Americans couldn't do it.
7:09 George Washington, the Father of the Nation!
God bless the USA!
Most people don't know (Philadephia Freedom) was written by Elton John for Billy Jean King's Tennis League. They wanted to start a Tennis Leauge in the mold of the NFL.
@Costa Zambaras You do.
Despite all of the faults 🇺🇸🇺🇸♥️ is still the greatest country in the history of Mankind in past, present and future forever Amen.
@@dianastein7431 What a crock...what country do you suggest is the greatest?
@@dianastein7431
🤦🏻♀️

When one is under tyranny, they long for freedom not healthcare. They long for freedom not safety.
Zoo animals have healthcare and they are not targeted by hunters. But they are not free. The difference is important.
@@texasrascle It's a mantra
Wonderful report.
Thank you 😁
My fav museum!!
The smartest thing that I've heard relating to our shared history is that it is NOT an 'unpatriotic' act to tell the TRUTH and shed light on injustices that those people suffered... The truth can be a sour pill to swallow but it's necessary
Very Good
Reporting!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Yes ,,,, OUR FUTURE IS TOGETHER!!! Praise God! One Love!!
Notice how short/small the uniform is next to Mo at the beginning.
And I am now a 10 second walk to the Revolutionary Museum.......
Yes, we should not forget the "warts" and all the people who never received center stage. American history has some pretty dark passages that need to be remembered along with what we were told in school.
That most patriotic thing one can do is be critical of our own past and present. It is to seek better for us and everyone and to accept that we can only be great if we continue to strive for it.
Well said
After I started living in the US, I learned about the treatment of Blacks, Native, Asians and other Europeans throughout the history of this country.
❤❤❤❤
Good thing the military protected our airports at that time
😂😂😂😂 im dead
The history of the world is a history of power. We fail to share it (or learn from our past) at our peril.
Never knew that slaves would run away and join British Army. Interesting!
Yes . In the early days of the war . The Royal Governor of Virginia, Lord Donmore . Made a decree . That if the slaves of the American revelutionarys would flee to The British lines and join The Army. They would be granted freedon with the Victory of the kings forces.
That’s the whole reason the South joined for independence
The real challenge in reimagining the American revolution is ensuring that those things which were previously swept under the carpet do not become the carpet.
His 10 looked really small. Further proving people were smaller back then.
Philadelphia is known as the first capital of the U.S. God bless the United States
How come you didn't air force one the plane George Washington flew around the country on
I’m on it. Prepare my time machine.
Hi from a history class
The Liberty Bell cracked shortly after its creation, how ironic!
the 2 horns of the 2 horned wild beeast
no mention here about the "Dames of Havana" who at the end financed the war. Giving Washington himself just when he was loosing and the soldiers were starving. The High Society Cuban women got together in Habana and donated all their jewels (1.6 million of back then money) to Washington and he was able to pay his soldiers and finance his war....got Virginia back and won independence from England.
thats so factinating! can you provide a source (apart from wikipedia) that i could use to read up on this?
Some very uncomfortable people in the comments...
No they’re just realistic
Is this about the American Revolution or is it about slavery and the American indians? Have you said anything at all about the causes of the Revolution? How about key dates and events?
BrandonFlorida - This wasn’t a documentary about the Revolution. This was a piece about a new museum and the artifacts that are on display. The piece also highlights artifacts and information from groups people don’t normally learn about in social studies. Chill out and go search for a good book or a documentary if you want dates. Better yet, go visit the museum.
Slavery is one of several primary causes of the revolutionary war.
@@StevenPaul0717 The video is called "The American Revolution."
@@jeromewhite7570 It isn't. Cite your source.
@@brandonflorida1092 1619 Project
The British Empire did not abolish slavery until 1834, and then didn't formally emancipate slaves until 1840.
Still earlier than the US and able to do so without a civil war.
@@alexfloate2420 It took the US only 90 years to abolish slavery. Britain took 800 years. Yikes!!!!
Man Alex, you sound kind of racist defending such an oppressive empire.
@@jpm74 And now someone ignorant of history decides to speak up...with projection added!!!
Newmans_Own
Slavery was in America going back to 1600
Britain didn’t have slavery in Britain going back to the 800 years
Can’t even full-screen bruv
Surprised by the mention of Betsy Ross. She didn't sew the first American flag.
They didn't say she did.
@@mrbear1302 Yes they did. They even showed her house. There is zero evidence that she had nothing to do with the American Revolution.
@@frenchjr25go listen at 0:34 they just say she is a famous flag maker. They didn't say anything about how or why. Probably due to your and many people's contentions about her.
@@mrbear1302 You are missing the point. The problem is that she was NOT a famous flag maker during her lifetime. They should not have included her in the piece - trained historian and journalist here.
@@frenchjr25 I would be interested in seeing sources backing up your argument.
MABA - Make America British Again!
Before you watch you must know
Many patriots died in the making of this video
32 acres. Just 32 acres.
who is here from school
Me
Focusing on a hand full of people was over proportion. This war was not about blacks or indians. it was about a revolution against monarchy and the beginning of democracy.
You better fight for Betsy Ross!
To Daniela, from Annabelle Comes Home, and Janice, from Annabelle Creation
If the structures, of the origin of the glamour of anti-monarchy from style and the symmetry between the persona of moral leader and the master of structural sex are identical allies, to the exposure of reality being a self means to the logical use of ideological entertainment for the user-computer of a routine difference, reality's ability to protect the supernatural from boredom can be an aristocratic location
So, they took almost 6million acres then make them pay $10,000,000 just to let them talk about it.
may we rename our founding fathers and floundering fathers because the they are human and ocassionly make mistakes and the last perfect person on earth was crucified on the cross as king of the jews and the son of god.
as dtrump says:
they had taken over All the, airports...😂😅😂😅😂😅 & that led to victory...🤦♀️🤨🤦♂️
where are the masks???!!!!!
The United States of America: An uncomfortable contradiction...

Find a better country and move.

I 😍 Love You Betsy Ross. Can You Hear Me Colin K., Nike ? I Want My Shoes !!! A Flag Good Enough For Our Founders. A Flag For My Love Of America 🎆🎇📣🎼⛪🚜🎄🌎😇🙏👶👫👪💪👍👏.
Does this show ever do a story without playing the race card.
Of course not.
@Rob Paul,,,,,of course they do not. They are under orders to "Divide And Conquer", until everybody is at each other's throat and there is civil war that will leave millions of soyboy liberal lunatics injured or dead. This is why CBS, Communism Broadcasting System" truly is "the enemy of the people"
The race card is very popular these days. Sadly I'm white so don't have the luxury to use that word.
@@saminaneen yet here you are watching it.. Why, if you hate it so much then why watch it? Stop your bitching and whining and just go back to Fox News you idiot
How is sharing a historical account of the country's history amount to playing the race card?
American revolution was lot more about big ideas that were ultimately forgotten with time.. it promised a lot but didn't deliver much becoz it was constituted by philosophers
Why don't you talk about Daniel Carroll....the Free Masons ..AND the JESUITS.???
Free Masons caused a lot of harm.
@@bonnierobinson5917 Bonnie,..they are STILL causing a lot of harm..
They didn't count my vote!
Propaganda pusher.
A pay to play museum, that's the American way.
What are you even talking about?
Didn't see one airplane, Trump won't be happy.
Gary Schmidt 💯
Gary Schmidt Trump loves America He would love this
@@MTknitter22 ahh but what kind of America does he love?
*TREASON SHOULD NOT BE CELEBRATED!!* 🤬
Anyone born in the USA is a Native American . even the Oneida guest speaker calls himself Oneida not Native American
I will give this video a "like" because most stories about the American Revolution hardly ever cover the story of the colored races and their role. However, if you going to cover their plight of colored people during the Revolution, at least recognize that their life improved over time and how decent Americans bonded regardless of race. Stop promoting the "victim" mentality among non-white Americans. Furthermore, Native Americans are not relegated to reservations. They can establish their own communities without government entitlements, but many chose not to. Like other countries and continents, the Americas were conquered. There's no point in whining about what was. Native Tribes fought each other and some sided with their conquerors. So, they sowed their fate. Stop living in the past and move on.
That’s lie
CBS SUNDAY MORNING lost to politics
Down with the traitor, up with the star!
Philadelphia, ring that Bell of Freedom and protect that Constitution! 🌊🌊🌊🌊
