The Boston Tea Party was a political protest on December 16, 1773 that represented the rebellion of the colonies from Great Britain. It was predominantly caused by the colonists’ opposition to being taxed without being represented in Parliament.

It all started with a group of men called The Sons Of Liberty. Why did they get in trouble? They got in trouble because they…

off the Boston harbor. This historical event in history is now known as the Boston Tea Party. There were over 100 people who participated, but the main leaders were the Sons of Liberty. However, there is one question: Why did the patriots reject the tea?
