Colonists resisted British rule through various means, including protests, boycotts, and the formation of groups like the Sons of Liberty. They organized events such as the Boston Tea Party to oppose taxation without representation, and they spread Propaganda to rally public support against British policies. Additionally, they convened the First and Second Continental Congresses to coordinate their responses and assert their rights. This collective resistance ultimately laid the groundwork for the American Revolution.
The American colonists formed a resistance movement to resist the policies of the British Parliament.

This approach reflected their growing organization and determination to resist British authority.
