Post a comment sharing what you think the song quote below means (whose perspective is it from, how did this idea lead to a rebellion and eventually the American Revolution) for extra credit on your Social Studies test!
"Half way across the globe, and we're standing on new ground..."
Natalie M. These are the colonists that have come to America. They are in a new country and want to do things their way. The British didn't like that and they tried to control the colonists.

ReplyDeleteThe quote means, "the colonists are far away from England and they are on a new land."
The people are the main characters of DOI. Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Adams. the King George is in the video. The colonists are complaining about the taxes, one of them is tea tax. They talked about the Inalienable rights that include Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Patriots did not want to tax so Thomas Jefferson , Ben Franklin and John Adams and all the others came together and wrote the Deceration of Independence 1776.
ReplyDeleteThe question . Half away across the glob, and we're standing on new ground.
The king cant control us now that we have won are independence on are ground.
ALLY D. The colonists are half way across the globe from England. They have worked hard to start the new colonies. They are tired of the acts, tax and tyranny of the king. They want the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They feel it is too late to expect the King to allow them these rights. It is time to declare their independence.
ReplyDeleteAllieF It means thers allways new places to go.it led to the revluson because thay meat new pepol and didn't get along.
ReplyDeleteHattie: this quote means that the colonists have broken away from the king and he can't reach them. The perspective is from the colonists' point of view. They want to be independent from Englsnd on their new ground. This leads to rebellion.
ReplyDeleteAutumn- The perspective is from the colonist. They had left England and fled to new land to gain their independence from the king.
ReplyDeleteThe perspective is from the colonist. The quote means they are far away from England to gain independence from the king. Sarah Posey
