I have no idea what the answer to your question is, but I can help you to understand it!.

1!. What was the Revolutionary ideology!? What were their principles and beliefs!? Maybe freedom of religion was one!? Maybe "All men are created equal" was one!? List 3-5!.

2!. Who were the minorities in American during Revolutionary times!? American Indians, for sure!. Were black people here then!? Jews were!. You could even consider Catholics to be a minority, if the dominant culture was Protestant, or Protestant, if they came from a Catholic country!. Since the early colonists were mainly English, Dutch, French and Spanish, the Swedes and Norwegians might have been considered minorities!. You need to decide which people counted as minorities for the purpose of this question!.

3!. For each minority, how was that group treated by the ruling class or ruling culture!?

Okay, now the question is asking how the principles changed how minorities were treated, and if they did!. Maybe they changed how Jews were treated, but not how American Indians were treated, or maybe there were changes for both groups, but in different ways!. So the second part of the question asks why some minority groups were helped by Revolutionary ideology, while others were not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
