The Sons of Liberty, led by figures like Samuel Adams, actively opposed British taxation laws such as the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts. They organized protests and boycotts, rallying public sentiment against the taxes imposed without representation. Patrick Henry, known for his fiery speeches, also spoke out against these laws, while Mercy Otis Warren and other patriots contributed by writing and disseminating ideas that fueled resistance. Benjamin Franklin, although initially suggesting some form of compromise, eventually supported the colonial push against oppressive taxation.
