🇺🇸 BOSTON TEA PARTY
☕️ On December 16, 1773, a dramatic act of defiance unfolded in Boston, a key city in Britain's American colonies. Known as the Boston Tea Party, this event became a turning point in the colonies’ struggle for independence from British rule.
💰 At the heart of the protest was the Tea Act, which allowed Britain to tax tea sold in the colonies without giving the colonists any say in the matter—what they called "taxation without representation." Frustrated by this injustice, a group of colonists disguised themselves as Indians, boarded British ships, and threw 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor.
🇺🇸 This bold act wasn't just about tea; it was a protest against British control and a demand for self-governance. The Boston Tea Party sparked wider resistance, eventually leading to the American Revolution and the creation of the United States.
