Warm-Up: What was the Great Awakening?(p. 121 - 122)
A religious revival called the Great Awakening hit the colonies in the 1740s. Many colonists, particularly in the middle and lower classes found the staid, ritualistic Anglican service unfulfilling against their assigned place at the bottom of the traditional social order. The Awakening brought an evangelical message of “new birth” that divided older congregations into New Lights and Old Lights. The movement infected Anglicanism as ministers like George Whitefield traveled to the colonies to spread his message of salvation to standing-room-only crowds from Pennsylvania to Georgia. Many of the “saved” joined the Separate Baptists, who promoted the equality of all souls before God and welcomed and baptized slaves into their congregations, treating them as “brothers” and “sisters” but also insisting that they adhere to the strict moral code of the evangelicals. The Baptists railed against the gambling, horseracing, card playing, dancing, swearing, drinking, and Sabbath-breaking that seemed to be the mainstay of traditional gentry culture. To Virginia elites this was indeed a world turned upside down.

Warm-Up: What was the goal of the Native Americans during King Phillips War (1675)? (p. 76)
Warm-Up: What was the goal of the Native Americans during King Phillips War (1675)? (p. 76)
The goal was to stop Puritan expansion, however it was unsuccessful and the English colonies were free to expand following the Metacom’s (King Philip) capture and death in 1676.
Many Puritans migrated from England to North America during the 1620s to the 1640s due to belief that the Church of England was beyond reform. However, most Puritans in England and New England were non-separatists. They continued to profess allegiance to the Church of England despite their dissent with leadership and practices. This greatly increased the (European) population of North America, which is why it is called the "Great Migration". John Calvin

Warm-Up: What was the Albany Congress? (p. 141)
In 1753, the British wanted all the colonies to agree to cooperate in defending themselves against the French.
The Iroquois Nation was also invited in hopes of an alliance, but they refused (they thought the French would win).
This Cartoon originally appeared in Franklin’s Pennsylvania Gazette in 1754, but was reprinted throughout the colonies.With problems with the Iroquois and also with the French and Indian War looming, Franklin thought unity was a must!
The Albany Plan of Union was a plan suggested by Ben Franklin to place the British North American colonies under a more centralized government. The plan was adopted on July 10, 1754, by representatives from seven of the British North American colonies. Although never carried out, it was the first important plan to conceive of the colonies as a collective whole united under one government.
