The British Southern Colonies Strategy | The American Revolution | PBS - March 23, 2026 - PBS
Official website: https://to.pbs.org/amrevpbs | #AmericanRevolutionPBS
When the British realize they won’t win in New England, they change their tactics. Instead of trying to keep all 13 colonies, they would focus on the most valuable – that meant those in the South. Southern colonies were part of an economic system that generated power and wealth for Britain. Plus, the British assumed there were more Loyalists in those areas who would come to their aid.

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION | A Film By Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt
An expansive look at the virtues and contradictions of the war and the birth of the United States of America, the film follows dozens of figures from a wide variety of backgrounds. Through their individual stories, viewers experience the war through the memories of the men and women who experienced it: the rank-and-file Continental soldiers and American militiamen (some of them teenagers), Patriot political and military leaders, British Army officers, American Loyalists, Native soldiers and civilians, enslaved and free African Americans, German soldiers in the British service, French and Spanish allies, and various civilians living in North America, Loyalist as well as Patriot, including many made refugees by the war.
The Revolution began a movement for people around the world to imagine new and better futures for themselves, their nations, and for humanity. It declared American independence with promises that we continue to strive for. The American Revolution opened the door to advance civil liberties and human rights, and it asked questions that we are still trying to answer today.

He was named to the NBA’s 75th Anniversary team as one of the 75 greatest players in NBA history.
