In this video we look at the documents that come from the tumultuous Revolutionary Era. Educators from noted American universities share their insights on Common Sense (1776) . Not everyone in the thirteen colonies believed we should be a self-governing country, independent from England. Those who believed this were called \"loyalists\" (loyal to the crown). Thomas Paine’s impassioned publication, Common Sense, laid out a compelling argument for the cause of independence and dissuaded many from a loyalist position.
