White Lies Shattered – Episode 6: The Lie that the American Revolution was about “Liberty”

Host Jamie Simpson welcomes back Penny Hess to obliterate the colonial myth that “The American Revolution was a fight for liberty from tyranny.”

Episode 6 removes the mists of idealism from the so-called American Revolution and examines the reality of settler colonialism in North America from the perspective of Indigenous people and the African working class, who have never experienced democracy in the United States.
