The Sparks Before the Revolution
Before the American Revolution erupted, the colonies were already cracking under pressure. In this episode, we trace the four sparks that set the stage for independence: the Dominion of New England, Bacon’s Rebellion, the First Great Awakening, and the Regulator Movement. These political power grabs, spiritual upheavals, and grassroots uprisings reveal how ordinary colonists began questioning authority long before 1776. Step into the tension, the chaos, and the awakening that shaped Revolutionary America — and discover why the colonies were primed to break.
