Reflection:
Give me Liberty, Give me Death by Patrick Henry is a powerful letter, that encourages the people to fight against what is happening. Sometimes when there is a big task ahead, people just need one person to stand up and say something encouraging to get them moving. Patrick Henry was that one individual who had a voice and he was a man that intended to get his point across one way or another. He felt that if the people kept obliging to England's demands then the people are slaves, which is ironic since that's the main reason why they left England in the first place, for freedom. Patrick Henry was not afraid of a battle, he was not afraid of a war...he wanted it. He knew that bloodshed was the one thing that would stop this injustice once and for all.
