SUMMARY:The Great Debate Part 2: Patriots & Loyalists
DESCRIPTION:The year is 1775—tensions with the British Crown are rising\, and one question is on every colonist’s mind: Would you fight for independence as a Patriot or remain loyal to the British Crown as a Loyalist? \nJoin us as our two historians face yet another Great Debate that divided colonists and even families during the American Revolution. David Goss will argue the case for Loyalists\, and Charlie Newhall will argue the case for Patriots. Both sides will defend their beliefs about freedom\, loyalty\, and the future of the colonies. \nThe debate will be moderated by David Olson former Editor-in-Chief of the Salem News \nAudience members will have the chance to ask questions\, challenge perspectives\, and even cast their vote at the end! \nThis program is part of Essex County Revolution 250 – an initiative of Essex Heritage in partnership with Massachusetts Rev250 and dozens of regional museums\, heritage sites\, and organizations\, with the intention of raising awareness and highlighting the diverse stories of Essex County\, Massachusetts residents\, free and unfree\, during the American Revolutionary period.
