Episode description

In March 1775, Virginia Delegates meet in defiance of the Royal Governor to discuss additional steps to opposed the actions of Parliament. When Patrick Henry proposes to build up the militia, opponents argue that such an action would be seen as preparing for war rather than peaceful resistance. Henry rises to proclaim that the British have already begun the war. Virginians can submit and become slaves, or fight for their liberty. Learn more about your ad choices.
