Was George Washington A M👀R? https://www.moorsinamerica.com/2016/0...
1774-2024 “Our Prophet”, taught us. That on September 5, 1774 and on October 26, 1774, A convention was held in Philadelphia. (Currently Historians) called that convention “The First Continental Congress.” However, The Convenors called it The “Odd Fellows Convention.” Our esteemed Moorish Scholar Sheik Azeem Hopkins Bey reports From his great work, “What Your History Books Failed To Tell You,” That On George Washington’s stated; If we agree to take the Fezzes and the Turbans off the Moors heads and remove the sandals from their feet and enforce it with severe punishments, and to also swear a death oath between ourselves to religiously, and faithfully not to allow anyone to teach the Moorish children whom they really were or who their forefathers were. And only allow the Moorish children to be taught that they were truly Negroes, Black people, and colored folks; (George Washington) stated that 250 years ago (being 1774) the Moorish People would not know their nationality nor the name of their forefathers also they would not know from which land or ancestors that they are descended from.” #ThingsThatMakeYouQuestionEverything🤯

From The Pages Of 1776-1976 The Bicentennial Almanac:
On March 5, 1770, English troops, provoked by boys in front of the Boston customhouse,
fired on them and killed five persons. The troops had to be moved out of Boston to an island in the harbor, where they remained for four years. On that same day of violence (the so-called Boston Massacre), Lord North's suggestion to repeal all the Townshend duties except the one on tea was passed by Parliament, & North soon let #TheQuarteringAct die without being renewed. The North policy brought a period of good relations that were disturbed only by minor irritations.
Then, in 1772, at the proposal of Samuel Adams, Boston and other Massachusetts towns set up Committees of Correspondence to formulate American rights and grievances and to communicate them to other towns and the world.
The consequences of the burning near Providence of a British naval vessel, the Gaspee, gave Adams and the Committees of Correspondence fuel for their proceedings.
The ship had harassed the colonists, but the English Commission of Inquiry in its unsuccessful investigation of the Gaspee affair bypassed Rhode Island courts. Concern spread to the Virginia assembly, which formed its own Committee of Correspondence and urged all other colonies to do the same in 1773. Such incidents formed a basis for union of the colonists.
Meanwhile, Parliament passed #TheTeaAct of 1773. Its purpose was to help the East India Company to sell more tea in America, at cheaper prices. Colonists reacted negatively, and when the next shipment of London tea arrived in December 1773, a "Boston Tea Party was organized to throw it into Boston harbor. The English reaction was to assert their authority, & under the Boston Port Bill of 1774 no ships could enter the port until the tea was paid for.
The colonists were outraged, and their anger was fanned as three more bills were passed by Parliament: #TheMassachusettsGovernmentAct, which altered the charter of 1691; #TheAdministrationOfJusticeAct, which provided for trial in England of any customs or government officer charged with murder, and, finally, a #NewQuarteringAct. Colonials labeled these #TheIntolerableActs. At the same time, #TheQuebecAct was passed.
Intended primarily to give a civil government to Canada, it attached to Canada western lands that were claimed by Virginia, Connecticut, and Massachusetts under their charters, and was interpreted as coercive of colonial interests.
General Thomas Gage, commander in chief of English colonial troops, was sent to Boston to govern Massachusetts. To deal with the emergency, an intercolonial congress was arranged by the Committees of Correspondence.
This #FirstContinentalCongress convened in Philadelphia on September 5, 1774, and by October 26, 1774 it expressed the colonial position in a number of decisions. The Suffolk Resolves declared resistance to the Intolerable Acts.
Joseph Galloway's moderate Plan of a Proposed Union between Great Britain and the Colonies was rejected.
An important Declaration of Rights and Resolves was approved; it called for rights of assembly and petition, trial by peers (unlike admiralty courts or trial in England), freedom from a standing army, and the right to choose councils when the power To tax is involved. It was resolved to form an "Association" in each colony to oppose trade and consumption of British goods through nonimportation and nonconsumption agreements.
Finally, it was decided to meet in Philadelphia again in May 1775 unless grievances were redressed.
