Description:

Social:
The Boston Massacre occurred when British soldiers in Boston fired at a group of Americans, killing five men. Before the Boston Massacre, Britain had made new taxes for American colonies such as taxes on tea, glass, paper, paint, and lead. This angered the colonists, so they staged a protest, leading to this Massacre.
