Essential Question
What is a true American?

Reflection:
Thomas Paine conveys his story as "The Crisis" as a drastic moment for all the men in America because of the results that attained to it. He tells about why England has the power it has and why we must revolt and fight for what is right. England has took complete advantage of America and we can withstand this nonsense anymore.

Dear Diary,

It's me again as i feel the depression and anger as every American citizen in the U.S. is because of the British taken over our country. The taxes increase sky-high, to the point that we pay with our total paycheck just to get food on the table, and I'm tired of this. It seems every single big thing we do to keep this country in a good flow of business isn't good enough for England as they take control of everything we made and fought for to gain this beautiful country. Unfortunately, unless we do something about the British are gonna walk all over use like bullies unless something is done to make America a free country from England and the world. It seems its time to revolt, show the British that were not to be pushed around, I should tell the people of the America this speech and tell them it's time for a Revolutionary. This looks like there's gonna be something we never though to do again but, it's time for change and a revolution, it's time for a Revolutionary War.
