Bill Plympton animates this chronicle of the post-Revolutionary War rebellion that helped inspire the drafting of the Constitution.
This is a short video from The History Channel's The 10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America. Did you see it? Comments?

I really enjoyed the documentary of Shay's rebellion. It is proof positive that the ideas of the revolution and the "spirit of 76" did not end at the war's conclusion.
I never saw this documentary, but I wrote a fairly large paper on Shays' Rebellion. Clearly an important event in early American history. Adding on to the Constitution post, I think we should remember the importance that Shays' Rebellion (and others) had on the establishment of the Constitution.
