Yes, but before they abolished slavery, 80% of African Americans were illiterate, and after only 36% were illiterate

So know you know that the war was totally revolutionary!
African Americans got to go to school, a women got a medical degree, moderates got to serve as state legislatures!
The American Revolution was very revolutionary!

In conclusion we think the revolution was revolutionary because of all the evidence we gave and all the docs at least give us two facts every time. Also all the stats are better after the revolution.

The evidence behind the revolution being revolutionary is literacy went up for white women by 50%

# data[].attributes.body
Well since your not arguing very much here are some more data to prove I’m right. Such as before the revolution 0% of the poor were state legislatures, and after the war, still 0%. And Wealthy “Gentlemen” still had a lot of power over things after the revolution. Anyways, I think the revolution was not very revolutionary.

# data[].attributes.body
Abigail Adams said “remember the ladies” and “ do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the husbands”

# data[].attributes.body
Right when the revolution stared Abigail Adams wrote a letter about women’s right’s and sent it to john so he could also protest about women’s rights

# data[].attributes.body
After the revolution 62% were moderate people who served as a state legislature for N. H., N.Y, AND N.J

# data[].attributes.body
Some stated Abolished slavery compleetly.

# data[].attributes.body
Well, the number of states that allowed women to vote actually decreased after the Revolution! And more than 100 years after the war, women still didn’t serve in state legislatures.

But African Americans still had little to no opportunities because people still considered them lower than white males and women because of their skin color. Lots of the education had little chance of paying off.

I know i know all states did abolish slavery but what amount the right to vote for women they got the right to vote in 1920! Seriously the war did not help

# data[].attributes.body
The war was revolutionary because after the war women could inherit property

# data[].attributes.body
Well, in doc D, it said that by 1810, 98 % of the woman in the population were literate, and that woman coul inherit property

# data[].attributes.body
It took 131 years until women could finally vote and Abigail adams wrote a letter to john adams to remember the ladies

# data[].attributes.body
Because I think that it is revolutionary because more people could be state legislators

# data[].attributes.body
all slavery was abolished in America in 1860, but slavery wouldn’t change for Britain. And after all the enslaved people were freed, they could go to school

In doc b the poor percent is still 0

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because even though white people and African American people had different standards, a few states still abolished slavery

# data[].attributes.body
It wasn’t revolutionary because poor people got nothing it stayed 0 before and after the revolution, only 1% of women could get a medical degree and 0% of women served as state legislatures between 1783-1893, after 131 years women finally got the right to vote Abigail Adams tried to get the rights but not till a long time later did women get rights.

It was only revolutionary for white men because they already had all the power. Nothing changed for African Americans and women. African Americans didn’t have many opportunities.

I think the was revolution was revolutionary because on the first doc there was a picture of all classes standing together and having a good time

I think it was not very revolutionary, because there was lots of things that didn’t change after the revolution. Such as there was still slavery, especially in the southern areas. Abigail Adams, said “will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in witch we have no voice or representation” a perfect example of what Abigail wished to do, but it took about 150 years after the revolution for women to be able to vote.

You may argue that it wasn’t revolutionary, BUT,  women gained the right to vote 131 years later, but all of the changes impacted the formation of our country. In fact, if it wasn’t for the revolution who knows where we would currently be.

Well Americans still have to pay taxes to the U.S. government today so overtime the whole purpose (Taxes) of the revolution was defeated.

# data[].attributes.body
I respectfully disagree; women gained the ability to inherit land and after the revolution, only 2% of women were illiterate.
Plus, African Americans were allowed to acquire an education. On top of that, some states completely abolished slavery.
Lastly, the rich were interacting with the poor. After the revolution the moderate section of the representatives went from 17% to 62% in 3 states. In the other 3 states it went from 12% and 30%. Thus concludes why the American revolution was revolutionary.

I think the revolution was not revolutionary because only a small amount of states abolished slavery! Eventually all states abolished slavery BUT when all states abolished slavery it was around 1845

Yes we did get our own land and STUFF, BUT women did not get right to vote till august 18th 1920

I think that it was not revolutionary because the only big changes were towards the white men who already had the most rights and more power

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree.  Women and African Americans still some got rights after the revolution but, if the revolution didn’t happen would they have still gotten those rights? Women were able to inherit land and eventually got the right to vote.  Also, almost every state abolished slavery after the revolution.

# data[].attributes.body
It was not near being being most of the states more than half of them abolished it in the mid 1800’s which some even abolished it 80 years later. Also women did not get the right to vote until the early 1900’s

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, but i said that it was mostly after the revolution, even if it was a while after, they eventually abolished it.  If the revolution never happened would any of the states abolished slavery and would women ever get the right to vote?

# data[].attributes.body
The reason that the slavery was abolished later was not due to the revolutionary war it was due to the civil war which ended in 1865

# data[].attributes.body
Okay, that’s a good point. But, it wasn’t all of the states that abolished slavery that late.  Some abolished it relatively early.  And women saved money by inheriting houses and they weren’t forced to buy a new one.

# data[].attributes.body
Still most of the states were not( majority wins )
