Who were the sons of liberty?

Answer 1

From the first page of the wikipedia.org article on the Sons of Liberty:

"The Sons of Liberty was a label adopted by Patriots in the British North American colonies before the American Revolution. They took their name from a debate on the Stamp Act in Parliament in 1765. Charles Townshend, speaking in support of the act, spoke contemptuously of the American colonists as being "children planted by our care, nourished up by our indulgence...and protected by our arms." Then Isaac Barre, a Member of Parliament and supporter of the American colonists, responded by describing the Americans as "these Sons of Liberty" and warned that they would resist the new tax."

Answer 2

Samuel Adams and Paul Revere headed the Sons of Liberty in Massachusetts. The Sons there also organized demonstrations, enforced boycotts and occasionally resorted to violence to advance their agenda. Similar groups were later formed in the Carolinas, Virginia and Georgia.

The Sons of Liberty waned in most of the colonies following the repeal of the Stamp Act in early 1766. However, the movement was revived with the passage of the Townshend Acts in 1767 and would remain a fixture of American resistance to the time of independence. It was then that they played a particularly prominent role in setting up the First Continental Congress (1774).
