Answer 2

Answer:

they joined to british forces because they were seeking liberty

Explanation:

During the Revolutionary War, many enslaved people joined the British Forces because the British promised freedom for slaves. Lord Dunmore in November 1775 offered freedom to slaves and indentured servants that were able and willing to bear arms for the British. But there was a catch, his offer was only for slaves that were owned by rebels, not by loyalists.
