History
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
5 0

Patrick Henry was one of the freedom fighters and co-founders of America. When the British passed the Stamp Act in 1765, he passed a number of resolutions in the Virginia legislature which opposed the act. He declared that  the Americans should be taxed only by their own representatives and thus people should pay no taxes unless passed by the colonist legislature. There began protests everywhere against the act which later forced the British to repeal the same.

What is one way the colonist rebelled against british economic politics
Mademuasel [1]
<span>Many Americans viewed all of this as a blatant abuse of power by the British government. Once again a call went out for a colonial congress to sort out a response. On September 5, 1774 delegates appointed by the colonies met in Philadelphia for the First Continental Congress. Drawing upon the successful manner in which previous acts had been overturned the first thing Congress did was to organize a comprehensive embargo of trade with Britain. It then conveyed to the British government a list of grievances that demanded the repeal of thirteen acts of Parliament. All of the acts listed had been passed after 1763 as the delegates had agreed not to question British policies made prior to the conclusion of the Seven Years War. Despite all the problems it had created, the Tea Act was not on the list. The reason for this was that Congress decided not to protest British regulation of colonial trade under the Navigation Acts. In short, the delegates were saying to Parliament take us back to 1763 and all will be well.
