    The older I get, the more fascinated with history I become. Was so glad to be able to find such a short and concise video that was not only easily digestible, but also super entertaining. Made it super easy to understand exactly why, and how they went about things. Thank you !

      @@kevinarevalo4747i feel like it would be moreso talking about how the us who became independent due to overrule from an ocean away are now oppressing hawaii, aswell as the northern mariana islands and guam, both deep in the pacific. all the while the latter two get absolutely no vote in federal laws despite having populations affected by those federal laws. Not just that, but hawaii is actually native land belonging to a once sovereign nation who were part of the commonwealth until america took it over and colonized it as a military base. (which is now overtaken by over tourism and rich people making it hard for natives to live their lives) - what i am saying is that we are now oppressing nations from an ocean away, just like how the british oppressed us 250 years ago from an ocean away.

      The colonists didn't like paying taxes to maintain redcoats to keep them off Indian lands honoring treaties. This is why they dressed up like Indians.

    • @maninredhelm

      Partly to psyche themselves up, but probably mostly to hide their identities. Despite being one of the three largest cities in the original English colonies, Boston in the 1770s still only had a population of about 15,000 people. It wasn't quite so small that everyone in town knew everyone else, but it wasn't much larger than that, and many of the local troublemakers already had a reputation. Painting their faces made them difficult to identify, or at least gave sympathetic witnesses an excuse to claim in court they couldn't see who it was. It wasn't to try to pin the blame on the natives, that would defeat the point of the protest. Plus the few remaining tribes lived far from Boston and had no reason to dump tea in the ocean.
