Hello people In this post I will be talking about the black soldiers who ere the soldiers that were slaves before and that they decided to join the patriots and other decide to join the british the ones who joined the patriots were told that if they won the war they will be free they will be free men and no more longer will be Slaves. These soldiers at the end of the war were also remembered as hero's of the united states because they also fought for their country and defend it with their lives. Many of the soldiers that were black died in this revolutionary war like I said before protecting and defending their nation against the British.
Now i will talk about a soldier that was a great hero of the revolutionary war and he was a black men and a slaveSalem Poor earned his place in history. during "the Battle of Charleston"-known today as the Battle of Bunker Hill. In this battle, African Americans suffered more than 1,000 casualties. At the Battle of Bunker Hill, Salem Poor performed so well that fourteen officers sent a petition to the Massachusetts legislature declaring that he behaved like an experienced officer, as well as an excellent soldier and added that "a reward was due to so great and distinguished a character.
I will also talk about another great black hero in this war he's name is The protomartyr of the Revolutionary war was Crispus Attucks, a black who was the leader in the Boston massacre on that memorable 5th of March, 1770. Attucks led the citizens in the charge, shouting The way to get rid of these idlers is to attack the main guard; strike at the root this is the nest. Black people were really important Also in this revolutionary war they became hero's and they were no longer normal people they were now important people in the American nation they were great hero's.
