In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 2 Topic 7 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 2 (1607-1754).

Because of the robust transAtlantic print culture developing between Europe and the British American colonies, American colonists imbibed deeply of Enlightenment thought including the works of John Locke on natural rights, as well as Rousseau, Voltaire, and Immanuel Kant. From those authors, colonists learned to long for a representative government in three branches which could check and balance each other as well as the notion of a social contract.

But with Enlightenment thought eroding people's confidence in the authority of biblical revelation, New Light clergy, under the influence of German Pietism, began preaching for a renewal of Christian faith. This led to the Great Awakening which was a religious revival that spread through the colonies under preachers like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield.

If you have any questions, leave them below and Heimler shall answer them forthwithly.
