Asked by Blake

With the Boston Tea Party was it a group of British colonists who boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by dumping it in the Boston Habor?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. By that time, the British colonists were more known as American patriots.

another question:
This was Governor Hutchinson's fault right? because Sam Adams and the Sons of Liberty demanded that the ships leave the harbor.
Answered by Ms. Sue
I wouldn't say it was Governor Hutchinson's fault. This was a complex situation and opposition had been brewing (pun intended) for a long time.
