The British issued Dunmore’s Proclamation and the Philipsburg Proclamation during the Revolutionary War.

If King George had defeated that rebellion as successfully as Lincoln then American slavery would have ended sooner.

This is actually a really old false narrative, but its not true as it's resting on extremely tenuous bits of information. The Empire and later British historians have been trying to claim that they invented transatlantic abolitionism for over two centuries, but even Benjamin Franklin had to nicely swat down the claim. (source: Papers of Frankl.) The legend goes that Granville Sharp is the first in line for abolitionism and Wilberforce and Clarkson pick it up from there. Then, eventually, America. Sharp is a great read, he did great things, he was a great man, but he got a lot of his ideas from the colonies and he openly wrote that. The timeline matters.

It gets me in a lot of trouble when I say it, but the facts are in. By not letting the colonies pass the laws that they wanted, the Empire forced slavery on the United States. I don't care who it offends, I'll say it every time. The Empire forced slavery on the United States. They should not have negatived those colonial laws and they do deserve criticism for it.

Dunmore's, Philipsburg, and also the Somersett case have all achieved legendary status based purely on revisionist history. Franklin, (again) ironically enough, also swats down the perch that Somersett is usually placed on.(Source: Papers of Frankl.)

The colonies had abolitionism first. That's wholly American. Our obstructed laws and the timeline also prove it.

Abolitionism, We did that before Britain. Americans were on the right side. America is the shining city on the hill. Always will be. America deserves the credit. And the documentation proves it.

The revisionism that exists right here, we're looking right at it. This right here is a big part of how the racial narrative that fuels the progressives and their despicable 1619 Project can easily be de-railed. They want the world to think that there was no abolitionism in the 13 colonies/United States until the U.S. followed Britain's lead in the 1830s. Bovine excrement.

America had abolitionism first and the 1619ists can go stuff it. It is a malfunction to give the Empire credit for what the Colonists/Americans were doing. If that makes me an apologist for the U.S.A. Good.

Because of the Empire's actions, white America and Black America actually have common cause, but because progressives control history they've erased it all and the progressives have weaponized that erasure to tear us apart.
