On March 1, 1781, the foundation was laid for a united America, but it wouldn't be long before the system needed a major upgrade.

In this line from Common Sense (1776), Thomas Paine emphasizes that fighting oppression is difficult, but the greater the struggle, the more rewarding the victory. It was meant to inspire perseverance against British rule, framing the Revolutionary War as a moral as well as a political fight.

Long before Black history was recorded, it was lived. Prince Whipple crossed the Delaware in 1776 and served through the Revolution. His presence challenges the idea that America’s founding was a white-only story—it never was.

John Adams wrote to John Trumbull in February 1776 while the war was building momentum. In the letter he reflects on the political climate, international reactions, and the rising tensions between the colonies and Britain.

During the Revolutionary era, Black men and women shaped history, often without recognition. Enslaved and free, they fought, endured, and resisted. Black history is not a footnote to early America; it is part of its foundation.

Franklin understood that empires crumble from the outside in. As tensions rose in the colonies, he predicted Britain's grasp on America would weaken. Years later, he helped negotiate the very treaty that ended British rule in the U.S. #BenjaminFranklin #TreatyOfParis #AmericanRevolution #History

My strategy for dealing with holiday overstimulation: reading about the innovative tactics of Russo-Georgian general Pyotr Bagration (died at Borodino in 1812) and wondering why no one has made a Beach Boys parody to the tune of "Good, Good, Good, Good Bagration."
Even in the Revolutionary War, people found ways to mark the holidays. Soldiers and civilians shared small comforts, exchanged gifts or treats, and sought moments of cheer despite harsh conditions.
Take a moment to reflect on resilience, community, and the little joys that helped people endure.
Our holiday sale wraps up tonight at 11:59 PM. Use code Nations for 17.75% off your order.

Hey Jeremiah, thanks for the tag--I've been sprinting from conference to conference for the last month and I haven't had the chance to go through our submission backlog.
Let me pull up your email and respond this morning.
The real Farmer’s Almanac is heading out of print—but ours isn’t going anywhere.
Poor Richard’s Almanack lives on, packed with colonial wit, weather signs, and all the charm of the 18th century.
