    Alan Gilbert, Black Patriots and Loyalists: Fighting for Emancipation in the War for Independence (University of Chicago Press, ) - Gilbert's book has been widely described as illuminating the previously unappreciated "revolution within the revolution." African Americans fought on both sides of the Revolution for freedom. Although Davis is clear about the fact that black soldiers in the revolution only occasionally won their own personal liberty, he doesn't go into the question of Washington's initial resistance to having black men in the Continental ranks. Instead of dealing with this sort of issue, which Wakin handles lengthily though clumsily in Black Fighting Men in U.S. History (), Davis is content to.

    Readers will find that African Americans in North Carolina during the American Revolution were active, not passive, beings who, in the face of adversity, struggled to maintain their dignity and African heritage. Davis, Bruce. Black Heroes of the American Revolution. 5 Extraordinary Black Women Who Played Major Roles In The American Revolution. By. Yanique Dawkins - Septem Wheatley was the first Black woman to Author: Yanique Dawkins.
