The American reaction to the Stamp Act of 1765 was one of widespread anger and resistance. Colonists viewed the act as an unjust form of taxation without representation, leading to protests and the formation of groups like the Sons of Liberty. Many colonies organized boycotts of British goods, and the widespread dissent culminated in the Stamp Act Congress, where representatives from several colonies gathered to oppose the tax. Ultimately, the intense backlash and economic pressure contributed to the repeal of the act in 1766.
