• Key Figures (Series Highlights): Samuel Adams | Paul Revere | Ethan Allen | George Washington | Thomas Paine | Thomas Jefferson | Marquis de Lafayette | Sybil Ludington | Molly Pitcher | Alexander Hamilton | Lord Cornwallis | King George III | Crispus Attucks | Frederick Douglass (later context)
• Big Idea (Series): The Revolutionary War was not just a string of battles—it was a long story of protests, choices, courage, and contradictions, as colonists, leaders, allies, and African Americans all shaped what liberty would mean for the new United States.
