Colonists began to view Africans as different from themselves primarily due to the economic drive for labor in plantation societies, which led to the establishment of a racial hierarchy that dehumanized enslaved Africans. This perception was reinforced by the need to justify slavery, portraying Africans as inferior and fundamentally different in terms of civilization and culture. Additionally, colonial attitudes were shaped by pseudoscientific beliefs and cultural stereotypes that emphasized racial differences, further entrenching the divide between colonists and Africans.

True or false the revolutionary war was fought because the Americans no longer wanted to be ruled by England?

False, or at least not entirely true. When the war beganmost participants believed they were fighting to regainEngland's recognition of the colonists' traditional rights as British citizens. Only when the King himself refused their petitions and labeled them as in rebellion, not under his protection, did the tide begin to shift toward independence (self-rule).Of course, many of the rights the colonists sought to regain --believing they had been compromised over the previous 15 years -- did involve their rights to make many decisions for themselves, tax themselves, etc. So in that sense, they wanted the newer type of "rule" to end.
