🛣️ Road to Liberty: The Path to Freedom 250

April 19, 1775 | Lexington and Concord

Tensions boiled over, and the first shots of the American Revolution were fired - later called the “shot heard ’round the world.”

At Lexington, 8 Americans were killed. Later at Concord, 400 colonists confronted British troops, killing 49 and forcing them to retreat. The war had begun.
