to get revenge on Great Britain
The Daughters of Liberty boycotted because the British government was taxing the colonists on tea but not the citizens in Britian.
One significant effect of the colonists' boycott of imported British tea was the escalation of tensions between the American colonies and the British government, ultimately contributing to the American Revolution. The boycott not only hurt British merchants but also fostered a sense of unity among the colonists, as they rallied around a common cause. This action led to events like the Boston Tea Party in 1773, where colonists protested against the Tea Act by dumping tea into Boston Harbor, further solidifying their resistance against British rule.
The tea party I think. The colonists dressed up as indians and dumped all the overpriced tea overboard trying to prove a point in which the prices were to high.
Colonists in Boston decided to protest the townshend acts. They called for a boycott of British goods. Samuel Adams led the boycott.
The colonists avoided the laws regarding trade by smuggling goods on foreign ships.
