Correct answer: He organized revolts such as the Boston Tea Party.
Samuel Adams earned the nickname because he was an outspoken, energetic leader who stirred public opinion and helped organize direct actions (Sons of Liberty, protests, the Boston Tea Party) and committees of correspondence against British policy. He did not support the British or literally set fires; being from Boston is true but not why he was called a “firebrand.”
