what do you know about the boston tea party?

Answer 1

It was more that that singular protest. The tax on the tea was not the issue. It was a statement....meant to show the king that they would not stand by and allow themselves to be bullied into submission. He was trying to cut out the colonial merchants by allowing British companies a monopoly to sell tea to the colonist and cut out the colonial middlemen. In return the colonists boycotted tea and British ships had to return having not sold their tea. The colonists were only insited to recall earlier injustices and push forth ion their disgust of taxation without representation!

Answer 2

Americans in Boston raided British ships in the harbor at night and dumped crates of tea into the water to protest high taxes.
