French and Indian War French and Indians against the British. Divided the colonies and Britain Impressing people into the British navy. Soldier Experience. Proclamation Line of 1763. Money.
Representation No Taxation without representation.  Britain has virtual representation.  Want direct representation – vote for someone to vote in the government.
Acting Out 18th Century Crowd Orderly protest against a law.  Stamp Act Crisis  Sam Adams (1772-1803) Crowd became violent.
Sons of Liberty John Adams starts it after the violent riots.  Spreads to major cities.  Has both lower and middle classes. Use boycotts and petitions.  http://library24.library.cornell.edu:8280/luna/servlet/detail/CORNELL~9~1~77816~2004
After the Stamp Act Only lasted a year.  Country was still in debt so the government calls for the Townshend Acts.  Tax on tea, glass, etc. (1767).  Colonists started petitions and boycotts. Violence breaks out.

Boston Tea Party Tax on tea was still in affect.  Sons of Liberty join the lower class in a protest.  Went to the Boston Harbor and dumped tea.  Most people drank tea and so it affected everyone.
