“Give me liberty or give me death!”

• Patrick Henry’s famous words from 1775 show how many Americans felt by 1776…Angry, frustrated, and ready to fight for economic, social, and political freedoms.

Thomas Paine’s Common Sense

• A pamphlet printed in early 1776 to convince colonists to break from Britain.

• Several main arguments…

Page 4: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

Paine claimed that having a king or monarchy is an unfair idea for

government.

King George III

Page 5: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

He asked why a tiny country should control much bigger colonies…

…and wrote that England was too far away to provide effective

government.

Page 6: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

He said that the colonies were being used for Britain’s gain…

…and he used the metaphor that America was a child that had grown

up and was ready to leave its mother.

Page 7: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

500,000 copies of Common Sense sold and the Declaration

of Independence was signed later that year…July 4, 1776.

The 2nd Continental Congress decided to break away from Britain

in June and the “Committee of Five” was appointed to write it.

John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and especially Thomas Jefferson helped draft the Declaration of Independence.

Page 9: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

As a result, British rule was officially ended and the United States of

America was created…The Declaration is made up of three main parts:

Independence Hall in Philadelphia, where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were debated.

Part I: Discusses “Natural Rights” & how all people

should have basic freedoms...“Life, Liberty, &

Pursuit of Happiness”- These came from Enlightenment

thinker John Locke’s Social Contract idea of “life, liberty,

and property”-also in Declaration of Rights- and the Great Awakening concept that

all are equal in God’s eyes.

John Locke

Part II: Lists dozens of grievances against King George III, such as taxation

without representation, troops in the colonies, and disbanding colonial legislatures. Basically, it gives the

reasons why the colonies are leaving.

Part III: As the United States of America, all ties are cut with Britain. New treaties

and trade with other nations would follow.

Page 13: Two Thomases, One Year: Thomas Paine’s Common Sense Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence 1776

…But first the US would have to gain its independence through war with Britain…

The American Revolution.
