Democracy and Anti-Democracy in the American Revolution and the US to 1800

Please study Chapter 7 of MHH and review the other materials you have read, especially Fresia, Toward An American Revolution.

What were the "democratic" forces? Be sure to briefly tell us what you mean by "democratic."

What were the anti-democratic, or elitist, forces?

Make reference, using short titles and page numbers (e.g. MHH 226; Fresia 18) to the examples you use in your answer.

Be sure to discuss: contradictions within the lower classes, including: different economic groups; women; slaves; freed blacks.

Write 300+ words; email to your group and to me.
