America’s Loyalists : Where Did They Go After The War?

This is the story of the paths taken by American Loyalists after the war - their struggles to find a new home, and the new parts of the empire they found themselves in. Primary source was Liberty’s Exiles: American Loyalists in the Revolutionary World among other texts. As a proud American, I’ve always been fascinated by the question of what happened to the third of the country who fought for the British. This video was my attempt to tell their story - with sympathy. Obviously if we were to make a video on the back and forth miseries perpetuated by each side, the video would be far too long - so this video’s scope is simple: tell the Loyalists’ story, and tell it fairly. I hope you enjoy. Some music included: from bits and hits
