Hello all, this is my first post on these forums and if you get mad at me for this post, I'm sorry.
But anyways I was assigned the prompt if the American Revolution was justified and I am going to say yes, it was. My teacher told me to focus on a couple aspects such as economics, politics, military/diplomatic. I need atleast 5 primary sources and 2 secondary.
For the economics part, I was going to say all the taxes and acts the British placed upon the colonists; however, I feel there is a gray area between that and politics, like what could I say for politics?
Thank you guys.

I also believe it was justified. As for the politics part, I guess you could talk about the colonists were not represented in parliament and Britiain's whole "virtual representation" concept, which said that every member of parliament represented all British subjects, including the colonists. You could also talk about the declaratory act and how Britain could unfairly pass whatever laws they desired.
I hope this helped, even if it was only a little, and good luck!
