July 4th is the day we celebrate our (USA) independence from Britain.

There were about 9,000 black soldiers, spies, and support staff that fought with the Patriots: the American forces. A black person by the name of Crispus Attucks was particularly opposed to Britain's dominance in the American colonies. He volunteered as a Patriot soldier, and is held by historians to be the first American killed at the Boston Massacre.

More black people volunteered to fight for the Patriots than white people did.
