Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Boston Tea party was an American protest initiated by the Sons of Liberty in Boston Harbor, 1773.

The Stamp act of 1765 was a taxation law enacted by congress with the intention to profit off of colonial taxation.

The Stamp act of 1765 was not a repercussion of the Boston Tea party but rather a benefactor of the Boston Tea party. The Stamp Act and many other taxations imposed by the British parliament seemed unfair to the American colonists; they felt they had no voice or opinion due to there being no colonist representatives in parliament. Naturally, they revolted (The Boston tea party) in defiance against taxations. The Boston tea party had an enormous impact spreading feelings of patriotism and independence nationwide, ultimately sparking the American Revolution.

I hope this clears things up.

Think about some of the ideas for Reconstruction

Alona [7]

There were several ideas from the Reconstruction and I will focus on:

13th Amendment - Very effective
Sharecropping - needed revising

The Republicans in Congress were able to pass and then ratify the 13th Amendment which:

Abolished slavery thereby freeing black people
Allows for Congress to come against other forms of slavery for instance, trafficking.

This was very effective as it ended a dark chapter in American history and paved the way for equality of races.

A disastrous policy that was implemented during Reconstruction was Sharecropping.

Sharecropping was a way by which White landowners kept poor Whites and Black people as legal labor. It involved:

Lending land to a farmer for payment in the form of harvested crops
Landowners controlling what the farmer pays them
Farmers getting into debt because they had to buy seeds and tools from the landowners and interest kept accruing even when they could not harvest enough crops to pay back.
Farmers being forced to remain on the land to work off their debt.

Sharecropping kept a lot of Black people in bondage and ensured White landowners had a labor force just like during slavery.

This could have been solved by laws being passed that allowed Sharecroppers to change their profession and go into other jobs where they would then have enough money to pay back their debt.

In conclusion, the 13th Amendment allowed the nation to start anew with all people being free but the practice of Sharecropping damaged that in some areas.
