QUESTION 3-What is the name of the city that witnessed both a massacre and a tea party during the burgeoning rebellion?
Correct Incorrect Boston: The two events mentioned are the Boston Massacre, which occurred in 1770, where British soldiers killed five colonists, and the Boston Tea Party, which took place in 1773, where American colonists, disguised as Native Americans, threw tea from British ships into the harbor in protest against British taxation policies. Both events were significant catalysts leading up to the American Revolution.
