The Sons of Liberty were formed in response to The Stamp Act. The organization was created in 1765 to oppose the Stamp Act, which imposed a direct tax on the colonies, requiring them to purchase special stamped paper for various documents and printed materials. The Sons of Liberty played a significant role in mobilizing public opposition to the Act and other forms of taxation imposed by the British government.
