Eventually these revolutions started movements a major one being the abolition of slavery. The slaves wanted what the white Americans got from Europe, they wanted freedom and equality. This movement was successful due to the collaboration between many people not just those who were enslaved, but those who supported them.
Another prominent movement is the Feminist movement past and present. They too wanted the things freedom, equality and popular sovereignty. They wanted the freedom to vote, to be able to work in jobs that were "for men", and wanted the ability to pursue and education.
