Because the fields have become so depleted.
And there are numbers of settlers who are forced back east and they don't like it.
In fact, the British are going to give them ammunition.
They're going to trade with them.
They're going to recognize them.
Hey, wait a minute.
Didn't we just fight with you to control this world?

At Pittsburgh awaits these traders who are going to take these goods to Pontiac's confederate
The first shots of the American Revolution are fired in March of 1765, when one of these backcountry militia groups known as the Black Boys attacks a British force escorting trade goods to Pontiac.
They say things like, we are willing to die to disrupt and destroy these relationships.
The black boys create an anthem and that anthem calls native peoples the enemies of mankind.
On March 5, 1965, their Indian presence did arrive.
But when this property is designed to serve the enemy of mankind, it's high treason in the amount.
It means that the British trading policies of supplying native peoples are supporting the enemies of not just settler society, but mankind more broadly.
That Britain is committing treason, not to the crown, but to humanity as a whole.
And so this vision of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for mankind, the first time mankind is being articulated that I'm aware of, is in deeply anti-Indigenous settings.
I do believe the start of the fall of the British Empire in North America began on the Pennsylvania frontier.
The sense of lawlessness or essentially fashioning one's own self-governing principles and practices, this is happening in Pennsylvania before it's happening in Massachusetts.
