BOSTON (AP) — Today is Monday, Dec. 16, the 350th day of 2019. There are 15 days left in the year.
On this day in 1773, American rebels boarded a British ship and threw more than 300 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor as a political protest to help jolt the American Revolution to life. The act of protest was against tea taxes imposed by England.
It became known as the Boston Tea Party, but did you know that rebels in Virginia continued this “tea-dumping” trend the following year? You can learn all about Virginia's own tea parties in our sister station, NBC12's podcast:
