Revolutionary War propaganda

Revolutionary War propaganda consisted of messages and materials used to inspire support for independence from Britain. It included pamphlets, speeches, images, and publications that emphasized themes like liberty, tyranny, and unity among the colonies. By highlighting British abuses and portraying revolutionaries as defenders of justice and freedom, propaganda aimed to rally public opinion, boost morale, and encourage enlistment. It was a strategic tool to shape perceptions, galvanize resistance, and solidify a shared identity among colonists during the fight for independence.
