watch the video on the Seven Years’ War and watch the video reading of the Declaration of Independence or read the hardcopy attached to this assignment. Then, write an essay of at least two paragraphs explaining how the Seven Years’ War is connected to the colonies declaring their independence and what “no taxation without representation” meant to the British colonists. Are there any groups of people today that can protest with a cry of “no taxation without representation”? In a separate paragraph, in your own words describe several of the complaints against the King of England in the Declaration of Independence. And respond to the following question: “Morgan Freeman in the video of the reading of the Declaration of Independence said, “The Declaration symbolizes the birth of our nation but, also, the constant struggle to achieve its ideals.” Freeman gives examples of that struggle throughout American history. Do you agree or disagree with Morgan Freeman’s statement? If you agree, can you give an example of that struggle to achieve its ideals in our present-day. If you disagree, explain your disagreement. Again you can watch the reading of the Declaration of Independence in the video posted below or you can read the hardcopy of the Declaration of Independence that is attached to this assignment.
