Howard Zinn Quotes

Starting With Bacon's Rebellion In Virginia, By 1760, There Had Been Eighteen Uprisings Aimed At Overthrowing Colonial Governments. There Had Also Been Six Black Rebellions, From South Carolina To New York, And Forty Riots Of Various Origins. By This Time Also, There Emerged, According To Jack Greene, "stable, Coherent, Effective And Acknowledged Local Political And Social Elites." And By The 1760s, This Local Leadership Saw The Possibility Of Directing Much Of The Rebellious Energy Against England And Her Local Officials. It Was Not A Conscious Conspiracy, But An Accumulation Of Tactical Responses.
