Colonist didn't like being taxed on daily goods that they once were shipped for free and were needed in order to survive, so they boycotted. In order to get Britain's attention they formed a secret organization called the sons of liberty to protest against the stamp act, which lead to an other cause to the revolution. The Sons of Liberty hoped to have protested enough against these taxes so that Britain would eventually leave them alone 
Britain wanted to tighten power in the colonies and presented them what are known as the intolerable acts. These acts took away certain political freedom away from the colonies and Britain was now in control of the colonies. The intolerable acts made the colonist furious and decided to rebel against the British. The First continental congress took place in 1774 in order to present the complaints by forming a governing body. This made the colonist believe that with a governing body and a formal document stating their concerns they will have more power to negotiate with Britain.]]> 2017-01-26 05:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149509574 angel_vallejo_ibarra https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149510513 2017-01-26 06:12:09 UTC https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149510513 angel_vallejo_ibarra https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149510587 2017-01-26 06:13:33 UTC https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149510587 angel_vallejo_ibarra https://padlet.com/tonybsalty/90tqyk9thfy1/wish/149510644 On March 5, 1770, a tragedy between the British soldiers and the colonist took place in Boston, Massachusetts.
