America let's not forget our Signers of the Declaration of Independence
Starting with Samuel Adams
There was Samuel Adams he was born in Boston, he became a one-man revolution.
He was seeing a heartfelt solution.
While Britain was sending their worst of the worst criminals to America demanding citizens lay down their guns and surrender to Britain.
Samuel Adams worked at a bank but lost his job because he was politically outspoken.
He became poor but never broken.
He would've starved had it not been for the merchant John Hancock whose mind was open.
Samuel Adams was the biggest critic of Britain.
He would sit for hours writing thousands of letters criticizing Britain.
He organized and took part in the recruiting that sparked the greatest revolution.
He organized Boston's Sons of Liberty, a group that protested and destroyed the property of Britain.
The British had a special name for Samuel Adams, they called him the Grand Incendiary, meaning someone that stirs up trouble.
But the many people he listened to that told and shared their broken stories called him the Father of the Revolution.
He later served as governor for the new state of Massachusetts, his deeds live on to this day to never be forgotten.
