RE: How is the American Revolution taught in the UK?

It's interesting to learn that not much is mentioned about it in the UK. It was actually a pretty interesting war, as wars go.

I don't really celebrate the 4th, honestly. It's hard for me to get all misty-eyed and patriotic over the independence day of a nation built on the backs of slaves and washed in the blood of it's native people. I have never felt I belong here.
