I don't think it has promoted an American identity. The story we think we know is not the real story so what we know is myth. The British didn't raise the tea tax but LOWERED the tax. Smugglers were upset over the reduced tax because it meant that the cost of the tea they smuggled into the colonies was higher priced than British tea. It was smugglers that threw the tea into the harbor and it wasn't the Sons of Liberty dressed as indians. This gives the story a different light, but if you think about it the story becomes more real.
