The Townshend Act was passed in 1767 after the Colonists rebelled against the Stamp Act. The Townshend Act was a tax on glass, paint, lead, tea and other things the Colonists needed.
During the Stamp Act of 1765, American colonists protested against the British government's taxation without representation. They organized boycotts of British goods, formed groups such as the Sons of Liberty, and held protests and riots against tax collectors. Many colonists also engaged in public demonstrations and petitions to express their opposition, ultimately leading to the repeal of the Stamp Act in 1766.
