Part+1-Voices+for+Freedom

All these works show how America evolves. First we start with what a model american is, by Benjamin Franklin's definition. His next work shows several aphorisms that were meant to help with everyday problems. Right afterwards we see a voice of rebellion in The Declaration of Independence. This was pushed to being written by Thomas Paine with Common Sense and The Crisis, number 1. Followed is two examples of what the freedom of america allows, a freed slave wrote poetry that was recognized and given praise as beautiful writing. Finally, we see how the descendants of the first african americans are in a revolution in their, now, own country, but they used peaceful tactics to achieve their means.
