Colonists heckle British Troops Shots ring out! Colonists are killed!

Leaders in each Colony begin to Communicate about British Calls for Colonies to unite their efforts against British Use “propaganda” information that is spread for the purpose of promoting some cause

Oops. We are really sorry. It was an accident. The soldiers will Be punished. The British are so bad they killed innocent people! They Are murders & killers. We must communicate with & unite the colonies!

Short period of cool down between England & the colonies Ends in 1772 with “Gaspee Incident”

The Tea Act: East India Tea Company is given a “monopoly” or total control of tea sales in the colonies Colonists refuse to accept the tea – Sons of Liberty dump the tea into Boston Harbor!

We will pour the tea down your throats! You will pay & obey! We will not accept your tea or your monopolies. We had no say! We will show You by dumping the tea!

Laws to punish Boston for Tea Party Boston Harbor closed – British Army in Charge of Boston (no Town meetings) Other Colonies fear this could happen to them!

We will show you whose boss! How Do you like those apples? We all need to meet! The British could do this to all of us. Maybe another boycott!
