During the Boston Tea Party, colonists disguised themselves as Mohawk Indians to conceal their identities and symbolize their resistance against British authority. This choice of disguise aimed to emphasize their connection to the land and assert their identity separate from British rule. The use of Native American attire, including war paint and feathers, allowed them to carry out the protest anonymously while making a bold statement against taxation without representation.
