Midnight Ride

The Midnight Ride refers to Paul Revere’s historic ride on April 18, 1775, during the American Revolution. Revere rode through the Massachusetts countryside to warn colonial militia that British troops were approaching, aiming to alert them to prepare for battle. This urgent message helped coordinate the colonial response and is famously remembered as a symbol of American patriotism and the fight for independence. The ride highlighted the importance of communication and swift action in moments of crisis.
