The Revolution did not secure liberty; it opened the door to either liberty or oppression, where only white men enjoyed all of the benefits and protections of A Resistance History of the United States, public historian Tad Stoermer shows how from the very beginning, that tension-between the ideals of resistance and the realities of power-has defined America more than the Enlightenment ideals enshrined in the Declaration of Independence and the powerful storytelling to focus on key-and often lesser-known-moments in American history, this book reveals the truth of how resistance movements from Colonial times have opposed the powers that be. Stoermer covers an impressive roster of pivotal movements, with each chapter identifying a key resistance movement and principle meant to inspire contemporary readers, including-Bacon's Rebellion/Metacomet's War (1676)Salem Witch Trials (1692)The Black Loyalists (1783)The Underground Railroad (1850)Through these and many more examples, Stoermer dismantles the mythologies that pass for American history-exposing the curated nostalgia, moral evasions, and institutional silences that have long protected abusive power. What emerges is an essential look at how we can take lessons from the past to understand, and effectively respond to, the injustices we face today.
