Describe the differing views among colonial leaders as to how to protest their grievances to Britain leading up to the Declaration of Independence
What will be an ideal response?
While most students should be able to identify the more radical viewpoints of leaders such as Samuel Adams and Patrick Henry, it is also important to understand that not every colonial leader favored rash action. Students can look at the ideas of James Otis, Joseph Galloway, and Thomas Jefferson as examples of more moderate approaches. The best essays will not only examine the different ideas, but also trace why the compromise efforts failed.
