23 avr. 1779 - colonists proteast

Description:

Many colonists opposed the Act, not so much because it rescued the East India Company, but more because it seemed to validate the Townshend Tax on tea. ... These interests combined forces, citing the taxes and the Company's monopoly status as reasons to oppose the Act.

The Committees of Correspondence rallied colonial opposition against British policy and established a political union among the Thirteen Colonies. Letter from Samuel Adams to James Warren, 4 November 1772.
