Who was involved with Boston Tea Party?

Answer 1

No one. This is one of the myths of our history. There was no organization or planning for it. A group of people were in a pub and talking about the tea tax. Someone said that they should go to the ships and throw the tea overboard. Everyone thought it was a good idea, so they left, some picked up things to disguise themselves, and they found 3 tea ships at anchor. The boarded them, knocked one Capt. down, and threw the tea overboard.

Answer 2

They didn't dress up. This is part of the fable. The Boston Tea Party was a protest of the lowering of the cost of the British tea by the government and the East India tea company who had gotten a bail out from the crown in 1773. The smugglers in the colonies found the Dutch tea that they sold was higher in price than the British tea, so they staged the Boston Tea Party and others in harbors in the colonies ( Hamilton was one of the largest smugglers in the colonies and a founding member of the Son's of Liberty). The cost of tea also went as far back as the Navigation Acts and the restricting of trade to and from the colonies passed from 1650-1733. Tea was also taxed in 1767 in the Townsend Acts.
