Patrick Henry played a crucial role in galvanizing colonial resistance against British rule through his passionate speeches and advocacy for independence. His famous "Give me liberty, or give me death!" speech in 1775 rallied support for the American Revolution and highlighted the urgency of the colonies’ fight for freedom. Additionally, as a member of the Continental Congress and the Virginia legislature, he pushed for key resolutions and policies that strengthened the colonial cause. His leadership and eloquence inspired many to join the struggle for independence.
