The Revolution created an opportunity for blacks to begin making demands of white society. Blacks petitioned Congress and state legislatures to abolish slavery and give blacks equal rights. However, the structure of American society at the time made it near impossible for blacks to be allowed freedom and equality (power of the cotton plantation, the slave trade, the politics of unity between northern and southern elites, established culture of race prejudice in the colonies, etc.)
