Gordon S. Barker in his book, In Fugitive Slaves and the Unfinished American Revolution: Eight Cases, 1848-1856 he contributes to the stories on American Revolution particularly in an effort to re-image and re-periodize the ‘grand American narrative’ of the U.S revolution by George Bancroft. The book is focused on the other side of the revolution i.e. the Black’s struggle for the war against slavery. For the common American man, the revolution and thus the war ended quite before when compared with the Revolution waged by the African slaves.

There, he worked briefly on a plantation before being sold to a British officer and commencing an active naval career during the Seven Years’ War and after. Purchasing his freedom after eleven years of slavery, he continued his maritime career and became a keen proponent of Methodism. A fairly prominent African in English society, he became heavily involved in the campaign to abolish the Atlantic slave trade, and published The Interesting Narrative largely to promote this cause. Although born in Africa, Olaudah Equiano was clearly a product of the European Enlightenment. The Interesting Narrative reveals this influence through the book’s radical arguments in favor of individual equality and its opposition to slavery as a cruel and inhumane practice contrary to enlightened society.
Once again, the contrast lay between backward, “feudal” division and modern rationalization and unification.

Simon Bolivar was an influence of the Latin American Revolution. His goals were to mold the former Spanish colonies of South America into a confederation just like the U.S. The Latin American War of Independence comprised numerous wars and conflicts which took place between 1808 - 1829.

There are no clear answers when war is waged. War is not as simple as a game of checkers. From policymakers and strategists to soldiers, war will inevitably take physical and emotional tolls on the participants of both sides on and off the battlefield that will last throughout their lifetimes. Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried eloquently describes stories of participating in the Vietnam War and the events that occurred, factual or not, and provides readers with the horrors of war that soldiers
Vanessa Navarro Period: 5 Lucy 2007: In many works of literature, past events can affect, positively or negatively, the present activities, attitudes, or values of a character. Choose a novel or play in which a character must contend with some aspect of the past, either personal or societal.

Early childhood memories are the spark from where children start to form beliefs on their perspectives on the world.

While the Haitian Revolution and Latin American Wars for Independence were different in the act of slave revolts and leadership of the revolutions, they were similar because both revolutions concluded in the abolition of slavery, and founding of a new state.

The rebellion of slaves that began the Haitian Revolution commenced in April of 1791. In 1810 enlightened thinking spurred the desire for economic reform to spread throughout Latin America. Citizens fought for the basic human rights for the slaves.
