Which Tea Brand Made History at the Boston Tea Party?

Paul Revere

Paul Revere (1735-1818) était un orfèvre américain né dans la colonie britannique du Massachusetts. Membre actif des Fils de la Liberté pendant la Révolution américaine (vers 1765-1789), il est devenu un héros populaire pour sa chevauchée de minuit en 1775, lorsqu'il avertit les milices coloniales de l'approche des troupes britanniques avant les batailles de Lexington et de Concord.

Went out to the city for a friend's birthday! Ate good food and did some shopping. I'm a lot more stingy than I used to be, but I still had fun! I didn't buy anything haha. Wishing her the best as always, was a fun trip! I made her a card too, it turned out adorable! I enjoy making birthday cards even though I just take inspiration from the internet.

Paul Revere The Real Story

Does the name Paul Revere ring any bells? This figure from history was made large by Henry Longfellow in a celebrated poem about the American revolution. Written a century after the history it purported to cover it mythologised the events, as art often does. Paul Revere the real story tells a different tale. There is a bronze statue of Paul Revere in Boston outside his house to monumentalise his place in history. Paul Revere did ride through the night to warn colonialists that ”the British were coming.” However, the man himself was much more complex than the few facts remembered  by a mythologising history.

Paul Revere Tried For Cowardice

Paul Revere was tried for cowardice during the American revolution. He was a silversmith and ran a successful business in the colony of Massachusetts. Revere was a member of the original Boston tea party protest and threw British tea into the harbour. Paul Revere was a colonel in the Massachusetts militia and led an armaments detachment. It was his behaviour during the disastrous Penobscot Bay, Maine expedition that led to the charges of cowardice. The American revolution pitted civilians against trained British troops in many instances and the results were often mixed. Revere is recorded as a difficult man and leader who had trouble getting along with his fellow revolutionaries.

Colonel Revere & The Penobscot Bay Expedition

Successful military expeditions are dependent upon the coordinated actions by the various divisions and detachments within a force. Revere, it appears, was a poor team player and repeatedly let his comrades down over the period of the Penobscot Bay expedition by the Massachusetts militia against the British. It culminated with his refusal to go to the aid of fellow militia members during the retreat from the Royal Navy in their ignominious defeat at Majabigwaduce. It strikes me as particularly interesting that an iconic historical figure, remembered throughout the country, was actually a most unlikely candidate for such honours. Heroes are never the carboard cut-outs that superficial accounts of history make them to be.

Accounts of history are massaged and manipulated to tell stories that support the current administration. The version of history monumentalised is rarely more than a skeleton of the available facts. The less known the easier it is to tell whatever narrative those in charge wish to spin to the generations that come after. The American revolution, for instance, was not a people’s uprising in the true sense. It did not free slaves, indentured servants, and empower women. It was more a shift from an offshore hierarchical control to the local landed classes.  The American revolution was inspired by an unwillingness to pay taxes by those propertied classes and merchants. This archetypal characteristic continues to run through many Americans and the GOP in particular. ©HouseTherapy Read the full article

Boston Tea Party

The Boston Tea Party was an act of political protest carried out by American colonists on 16 December 1773, in Boston, Massachusetts. Disguised as Mohawk Native Americans, the colonists dumped 342 crates of tea into Boston Harbor to protest both a tax on tea and the monopoly of the British East India Company on the tea trade.

The People should never rise, without doing something to be remembered—something notable And striking. This Destruction of the Tea is so bold, so daring, so firm, intrepid and inflexible, and it must have so important Consequences, and so lasting, that I cant but consider it as an Epocha in History. -John Adams
