This lead to a huge revival in the 1720s of religion and the colonists having more religious and political freedom.]]> 2019-10-21 03:28:50 UTC https://padlet.com/fruitydreamer/1wlxvm7r3ird/wish/400113541 fruitydreamer https://padlet.com/fruitydreamer/1wlxvm7r3ird/wish/400113598 I helped create a unique American identity by setting of schools in most communities to allow wealthy children to get an education.
