The Stamp Act and Methods of Protest
Page 33 Chapter 8 The Stamp Act and Methods of Protest espite the many arguments made against it, the Stamp Act was passed and scheduled to be enforced on November 1, 1765. The colonists found ever more vigorous and violent ways to D protest the Act. In Virginia, a tall backwoods lawyer, Patrick Henry, made a fiery speech and pushed five resolutions through the Virginia Assembly. In Boston, an angry mob inspired by Sam Adams and the Sons of Liberty destroyed property belonging to a man rumored to be a Stamp agent and to Lt. Governor Thomas Hutchinson. In New York, delegates from nine colonies, sitting as the Stamp Act Congress, petitioned the King and Parliament for repeal. In Philadelphia, New York, and other seaport towns, merchants pledged not to buy or sell British goods until the hated stamp tax was repealed. This storm of resistance and protest eventually had the desired effect. Stamp sgents hastily resigned their Commissions and not a single stamp was ever sold in the colonies. Meanwhile, British merchants petitioned Parliament to repeal the Stamp Act. In 1766, the law was repealed but replaced with the Declaratory Act, which stated that Parliament had the right to make laws binding on the colonies "in all cases whatsoever." The methods used to protest the Stamp Act raised issues concerning the use of illegal and violent protest, which are considered in this chapter. May: Patrick Henry and the Virginia Resolutions Patrick Henry had been a member of Virginia's House of Burgess (Assembly) for exactly nine days as the May session was drawing to a close.

The Sons and Daughters of Liberty Questions
Name Date The Sons and Daughters of Liberty By Cindy Grigg Caption: A depiction of the tarring and feathering of Commissioner of Customs John Malcolm, a Loyalist, by five Patriots on 5 January 1774 under the Liberty Tree in Boston, Massachusetts. Tea is also being poured into Malcolm's mouth. The print shows the Boston Tea Party occurring in the background, though that incident had in fact taken place four weeks earlier. Note the noose in the tree and the Stamp Act posted upside-down. After Britain began taxing the colonies in 1765, the colonists were angry. They had no representatives in the British Parliament. In Boston, there were public demonstrations. People flooded the streets to protest what they felt were unfair taxes. Angry mobs went to the home of the king's agent who was supposed to collect taxes in the colony. Colonists who fought the tax called themselves the "Sons of Liberty." The name came from a speech made by a member of Parliament. He also opposed the tax. Some of the Sons were common laborers. Some were merchants. Some were lawyers. Some were artists. Some were doctors. Some were newspaper publishers and writers. All of them were Patriots. They supported political freedom in the colonies. These men often held public protests against British taxes and laws. They rallied around "Liberty Trees", "Liberty Poles", or other public meeting places. In Boston, two prominent leaders were Paul Revere and Samuel Adams. In 1773, the tax on tea led the Sons of Liberty to make a public statement. "It is essential to the freedom and security of a free people that no taxes be imposed on them but by their own consent or that of their representatives." They declared that as long as tea was taxed, anyone who brought tea into the colony "shall be deemed an enemy to the liberties of America." The Sons of Liberty planned and carried out the Boston Tea Party in December 1773.

Sons of Liberty Patriots Or Terrorists
The Sons of Liberty : Patriots? OR Common ? Core Terrorists focused! http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Mr-Educator-A-Social-Studies-Professional Instructions: 1.) This activity can be implemented in a variety of ways. I have done this as a class debate and it works very, very well. However, I mostly complete this activity as three separate nightly homework assignments, or as three in-class assignments, followed by an in-class Socratic Seminar. The only reason I do this is because I will do the Patriots v. Loyalists: A Common Core Class Debate (located here: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/ Product/Patriots-vs-Loyalists-A-Common-Core-Class-Debate-874989) and I don’t want to do two debates back-to-back. 2.) Students should already be familiar with the Sons of Liberty. If they aren’t, you may need to establish the background knowledge of what this group is and all about. 3.) I will discuss the questions as a class that are on the first page of the “Day 1” reading. Have classes discuss what makes someone a patriot and a terrorist. Talk about how they define these words? Can one be one without being the other? How? Talk about what both sides are after. What are the goals of terrorists? Why are they doing it? It is also helpful to bring in some outside quotes of notorious terrorists, such as Bin Laden, to show that they are too fighting for what they believe to be a just, noble cause. 4.) For homework - or as an in-class activity - assign the Day 1 reading.

The Story of the Turtle Creek Valley: a Pictorial History
1 The Story of the Turtle Creek Valley: A Pictorial History Louis Chandler "Turtle Creek" - Acrylic Painting by Local Artist and Historian Kathleen Ferri December 2015 2 Preface Professor Gordon Wood, a distinguished historian, once pointed out that unlike so many cultures of the old world, Americans do not have a single unifying religion, nor do we have centuries of a cultural tradition. There are only two things that unite us: our language and our history. And we must constantly fight to preserve both. This is an attempt to preserve the local history of a time and place worth remembering. In these pages the reader will find pictures of local history. The aim is to provide a brief history, lavishly illustrated. It is hope the pictures will carry the story, as only historic photographs can. The story of the Turtle Creek Valley is a story that needs to be set down, and this may well be a first step. Louis Chandler, Ph.D. Monroeville, 2015 3 Acknowledgments The author wishes to thank the following for their contribution to this work: Jim Sutherland, a Westinghouse engineer who understands the value of history; Kathleen Ferri whose unique art reflects her love for her community; Roy Jobe whose enthusiastic support for local history prompted this initiative; Henry Bowden, local historian, Turtle Creek, for reading the manuscript and providing suggestions. As a pictorial history relies so heavily on the selected photographs to tell the story, the author is especially grateful to: Andrew Capets, local historian, Trafford, Pa.; the Roy Jobe photo collection; collection of the George Westinghouse Museum; the Westinghouse Company photographers; collection of Cyrus Hosmer, III; Robert S.

Sons of Liberty, 1765
Sons of Liberty, 1765 Case Western Reserve University Model United Nations Spring Conference 2020 CWRUMUN•CCWA Spring Conference 2020 FROM YOUR CRISIS DIRECTOR Dear Delegates, My name is Sydney Olney, and it is with distinct pleasure that I welcome you to the Sons of Liberty, 1765 Crisis Committee! Sons of Liberty, 1765 is based on the activity of various chapters of the revolutionary organization, most notably, the Boston and New York groups. This committee will provide delegates with the unique opportunity to exercise their knowledge of revolutionary history in a fast-paced, dynamic, and contemporary setting. As delegates of Sons of Liberty, 1765, you will fight for representation, utilize the power of the mob, and influence the trajectory of the American colonies towards (or away from) revolution. The fate of your countrymen is in your hands! I anticipate that many of you will be completely new to crisis—that is okay. We will reward research, hard work, and initiative. An involved and inexperienced delegate will have more impact on committee than a disengaged veteran. The committee will also look favorably on well- rounded delegates who are able to balance speaking time, directives, and crisis notes. As such, try your best not to neglect one part of your role for another, as every aspect of delegate performance will be considered when determining awards. My utmost hope for our two days together is that all of you will be able to learn and grow as delegates. I didn’t start Model United Nations, until college, so I know what it’s like to feel completely out of your depth in a committee.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.
