The Boston Tea Party was a protest against the British Government in the British American colonies, in reaction to the Tea Act.
At night, the Sons of Liberty, disguised as members of the Kanien'kehá:ka tribe, climbed onto three ships inside the harbor and dropped the crates containing the cargo of tea into the sea. Two Assassins, Ratonhnhaké:ton and Stephane Chapheau, were present during the event and assisted the Sons of Liberty.
