Ken Burns' new series highlights some lesser-known revolutionaries from Philly and South Jersey

omg I'm so hyped for this docu series 🤩! I love how it's highlighting lesser-known figures who played major roles in shaping America's history. James Parker sounds like a total OG 📢, and Hannah Griffitts' poem "The Female Patriots" is giving me all the feels 😍. And can we talk about Nicholas Collin for a sec? his story is like, soooo complex and interesting 🤯. But what I'm really here for is James Forten's abolitionist journey - it's amazing to see how he stayed true to himself despite the challenges he faced 💪. Ken Burns is a genius for bringing these stories to light 💡!
 
OMG, I'm totally stoked about this new docu series on the American Revolution 🤩! Its dope to see all these lesser-known figures being highlighted - like James Parker, who was low-key a printing revolutionary 📰🔥, and Hannah Griffitts, who used her poetry to inspire colonial women to join the fight for independence 💖. And can we talk about Nicholas Collin's drama? Being taken prisoner by American forces is, like, major 😱. But what I love most is that James Forten's story highlights the complexities of racial identity during this time period - its a super important topic that needs more attention 🤝. Ken Burns is a genius for bringing all these stories to light 💡. The docu series is giving me all the feels and I'm here for it ❤️.
 
omg u gotta watch this docu on ken burns channel 🤯 he's shedding light on some major lesser-known ppl from the revolutionary war era lol james parker is like woah! a printer from nj who collab'd w/ ben franklin 📰👍 and helped spread dissent against british rule through his press. Hannah griffitts, tho... her poem "the female patriots" gives me all the feels 🌸💖 it's crazy to think these ppl were fighting for the same cause but with different ideologies 🤔 nics collin is also lowkey fascinating 😂 how did a swedish minister navigate being torn between loyalty and freedom? 🤷‍♀️ james forten, tho... his story is like, totally inspiring 🙌 he's proof that even in dark times, we can still fight for what's right 💪
 
🤔 I think it's so cool that Ken Burns is shedding light on these lesser-known historical figures. We're always taught about the Founding Fathers, but what about the women who played a huge role in the Revolution? Like Hannah Griffitts, her poem "The Female Patriots" gives me chills every time 🙌. And can you even imagine having to navigate loyalty between Sweden and America like Nicholas Collin did? 😩 It's wild how these people lived through some of the most intense moments in American history. I'm definitely adding this docuseries to my watchlist ASAP! 👍
 
🤔 gotta love how ken burns is bringin to light some of these unsung heroes from american history 🇺🇸 u know, ppl think the revolutionary war was just about george washington and benjamin franklin, but there's so much more to it than that 💡 i'm curious to see how this series unfolds and what other stories burns brings to the table 📺
 
OMG this docu is gonna be SO inspiring!!! 🤩 I love how Ken Burns is shedding light on these lesser-known historical figures who played such big roles in shaping America's history! James Parker's work on his printing press was literally a game-changer, spreading dissent and critique of British rule. And Hannah Griffitts' poem "The Female Patriots" gives me all the feels 🙌 I also feel so bad for Nicholas Collin being taken prisoner by American forces, but he's a true hero for standing up for what he believed in! And can we talk about James Forten, a young boy who grew up to become an abolitionist and patriot? He's like a total role model 💖 This docu is gonna be so informative and eye-opening, I'm already planning on binge-watching it this weekend 😍
