5.2 Uniting the Colonists

Trouble in Massachusetts Britain occupied Boston (redcoats) Tension in Streets – Boston Massacre (5 colonists shot by redcoats in a fight) Spreading the News: Boston Massacre used as propaganda  boycott against GB grew  GB removed Townshend Act, except on Tea  colonist boycott tea Committees of Correspondence (anti-GB) developed throughout the colonies

Cries in Boston British East India Co (BEIC) relied on colonies for $$ (especially tea $$) Parliament passes Tea Act to help BEIC (gave all tea control to BEIC and removed almost all of the tea tax) Colonists still made b/c there is still SOME tax on tea Tea Party: 1773 Boston Sons of Liberty dressed as Native Americans and threw tea overboard BEIC ships *** Very oddly…most colonists still saw themselves as loyal British citizens***

Intolerable Acts 1774 Coercive Acts: laws to punish colonists for resisting British authority All colonies must allow soldiers to live in colonial homes Massachusetts: Town meetings banned, closed Boston Harbor until ruined tea paid for COERCIVE ACT BRINGS COLONIES TOGETHER – colonies send food/supplies to Mass. Colonists Quebec Act – gave land/gov’t to Canada in Ohio River Valley (part of colony that Washington fought for and won) Colonists called these acts the Intolerable Acts
