In this penultimate episode of their overview of the American Revolution, James and Audrey examine what happened after Yorktown, from the Treaty of Paris and the Newburgh Conspiracy to the financial and political challenges facing the new United States. We explore how the Revolution reshaped American government, society, religion, and ideas about liberty while also confronting the painful realities of slavery, Native American dispossession, and the Revolution's unfulfilled promises. Along the way, we consider the Revolution's influence on abolitionism, republican government, and democratic movements around the world, drawing on the insights of historians such as Gordon Wood and Jeffrey Hummel. Join us as we assess the Revolution's enduring legacy and ask whether this remarkable struggle truly changed the course of history.
