Sons of Liberty

A group of rebels. Everywhere exists a group of people that resist the order of things. Very well. The colonies were not an exception to this; they called themselves the Sons of Liberty. They were a group of artisans and shopkeepers of Boston that planned to refuse the Stamp Act and the laws that the Parliament tried to enact on the colonies. It started in Boston, but they were so strategic that the group soon grew and there was one Sons of Liberty group in every colony.
The Sons of Liberty had leaders, as so does every association, team, group, etc. that consists of more than one member. A known leader is Samuel Adams although as he was a public figure it didn´t help much to the reputation of the Sons of Liberty. The first and actual known leader that gathered nearly 2000 men was a shoemaker of Boston called Ebenezer Macintosh.
The first known action by this group created in 1765 was committed on August 14, 1765 when a man with name Andrew Oliver was found assassinated hanging of a tree in Newbury Street. It is important to highlight that he was a stamp collector in Boston. This radicals were clever but most of all, they fought against injustice. It was through the means not only of violence but through intellectual means that these rebels could act against the British and their urging need to raise money by levying taxes. The Sons Of liberty played an important role in the dissolution of the Acts passed by the Parliament for the colonies. The Sons of Liberty were the ones that took out every royal governor of each colony.
