I don't see that version of the American Revolution as the cornerstone of the Project, but the quoted section seems unobjectionable in itself.
There is no historical basis for conjuring a British plan to eliminate slavery to which the American Revolutionists are alleged to have been revolting. The British didn't get rid of slavery until the 1830s. Arguably, this was largely predicated on the fact that their industrial development didn't need slavery because they were doing quite well profiting from the slave labor of the American South, supplying that cotton to the British textile industry. And the African Americans who gained freedom between the start of the American Revolution and the 1830s would have remained slaves had the British won. There are other points to make on this but I think the chronological issue suffices. Cheers, Mark L. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
