During the American Revolution, most of the slaves could not serve in the army, free blacks could but slaves could not. Some historians say that the American Revolution reinforced the idea of a racial identity based on skin color.
Because of that some slaves and blacks decided to fight for the British, because they offered them freedom for joining their cause, a thing that the Americans did not offer them.
Of the half a million slaves that were in the American colonies during the American Revolution, 20 thousand joined the British cause. Many slaves that belonged to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, and others fled to the British side.
The main result was that this led to the largest slave uprising and the greatest emancipation until the Civil War. Some of those ex-slaves emigrated to Sierra Leone, Canada, and Britain.
The American resources that were the most important to the Spanish were gold and silver, while for the French it was the furs that they traded. England found great profit in the tobacco trade.
Answer: Grover Cleveland’s response to the Pullman strike was to send federal troops to keep the trains running.

The Pullman Strike started on 11 May 1894. It was the result of protest by railway workers against George Pullman, hence the name Pullman strike.
George Pullman started cutting manpower and asked the remaining ones to work extra hours at a lower wages. This started in 1983 as a result of economic downfall caused by the Panic of 1893.
It was this strike that gave birth to Labor Day, a national holiday to pacify American labor movement.
The labors who started Pullman Strike were from a union founded by Eugene Debs, known as American Railroad Union (ARU).
The government's response to this strike gave a hint that government is trying to break the strike.
