The excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech to the Second Virginia Convention in 1775. Which sentence suggests that Patrick Henry believed British rule in the American colonies was tyrannical?

1 answer

In Patrick Henry's "Give me liberty or give me death" speech, the sentence that suggests he believed British rule in the American colonies was tyrannical is typically one where he emphasizes the denial of rights, oppression, or the imposition of unjust governance. A key phrase often associated with this sentiment is when he refers to the "slavery" or the "chains" of British rule, implying that living under such a government is akin to living in tyranny.
