The Boston Tea Party: A Catalyst for Revolution

The Boston Tea Party, held on December 16, 1773, marked a pivotal moment in American history. American colonists, frustrated by King George III's taxation on tea and other goods, protested by disguising themselves as Native Americans. They famously boarded ships in Boston Harbor and dumped an entire shipment of British tea into the water. This daring act of defiance against British rule galvanized colonial resistance and ultimately contributed to the American Revolution. Share your experiences about the best or worst party you've attended and what made it memorable!
