Watch Freedom & Repression In Colonial America

The Mayflower Pilgrims and the Jamestown colony revealed some of the first conflicts between the European and Native American views of freedom. The freedoms created by the House of Burgesses are contrasted with the introduction of slavery and the Puritan attempts to form theocracies. These contradictions expose conflicts over freedom among whites themselves, as well as between them and other groups.

Freedom & Repression In Colonial America is a 2007 documentary with a runtime of 16 minutes.
