The Boston Tea Party - was a politically motivated protest by colonists in Boston against the British government on December 16, 1773. The Tea Act, passed by the British Parliament in 1773 reduced the tax on tea shipped to the colonies, and the colonists didn't want to be under the British rule anymore, so the dumping of the taxed tea in Boston harbour was there protest against the British Empire, which eventually led to the American War of Independence.Dont forget they dressed up like indians!!
