The British enlisted the services of enslaved people during the American Revolution.
The American Revolution had a complex impact on enslaved individuals. While the rhetoric of liberty and freedom inspired some enslaved people to seek their own emancipation, the Revolution did not result in widespread abolition in the newly formed United States. In some northern states, gradual emancipation laws were enacted, but in the South, slavery expanded as plantation economies grew. Additionally, many enslaved individuals fought for both the British and American sides in hopes of gaining freedom, leading to a paradoxical situation where the fight for independence did not equate to freedom for all.
