The boycott of 1765 was primarily a response to the Stamp Act imposed by the British government, which required colonists to pay taxes on printed materials. American colonists viewed this tax as a violation of their rights, as they had no representation in Parliament. The boycott aimed to pressure British merchants and the government to repeal the tax by refusing to purchase British goods, ultimately fostering a sense of unity among the colonies against British taxation policies. This collective action laid the groundwork for further resistance and the eventual push for independence.
