jan 1, 1765 - Sons of Liberty
Description:
Once the "Loyal Nine," created by Alexander McDougall, Isacc Sears, and John Lamb, grew, they became the sons of liberty. They were a group who organized hundreds of people to parade around NYC and shout, "liberty." This caused mob protests, hangings, tarring and feathering, and burning effigies.
