In perhaps the most famous 'Virginia Convention' of Colonial Times in America, the one held on March 20, 1775, there were in fact 'exclamations' that were made. The most famous is without doubt that uttered by Patrick Henry to the effect of 'Give me liberty or give me death!'

Did the Virginia Plan support slavery?

The Virginia Plan, presented at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, did not explicitly address the issue of slavery, but it implicitly supported it by counting enslaved individuals as part of the population for representation purposes. This meant that states with large enslaved populations, like Virginia, would gain more representation in Congress. However, the plan did not propose any specific protections or regulations regarding slavery itself. Ultimately, the issue of slavery was a contentious topic during the convention, leading to compromises that allowed it to persist in the new Constitution.
