Zinn post sorry its a little late.

In this chapter Zinn talks a lot about those in the war who weren’t as fortunate as the White Men, the Men who didn’t get the slack and the rewards as the white men did. There were many slaves and poor white men who never really got the reward for fighting the hardest in the war. During the revolution many poor white farmers left their farms to go fight in the war to just come home and be in debt. So pretty much the only people who came out of the war happy and rewarded were the Rich white men. Only the slaves in the North were allowed to fight and that where the majority of the war took place because the south didn’t really want to get involved. After the war ended slaves felt the need to start fighting for there freedom and getting more rights. Natives were pushed West and were facing terrible fates since the French and Indian war. This chapter also played into the Constitution when they wrote it they were really only writing it for the rich white men. Women, blacks, and Indians didn’t have any say. Which caused more conflict within the colonies. So even though they had gotten there freedom from the British things were not solved in the colonies.
