Was America's Independence Day influenced by secret societies? In this insightful episode of the Jeremy Ryan Slate Show, we take a deep dive into July 4th, 1776, unraveling the layers of history, rebellion, and the potential shadowy ties of Freemasonry. This critical examination blends 60% verified historical accounts with 40% plausible conspiracy theories, offering a unique perspective on one of the most iconic dates in American history. From the Boston Tea Party to the Continental Congress debates, we explore the revolutionary ideals sparked by figures like Jefferson and Franklin—many of whom had documented ties to Masonic lodges. Could the Declaration of Independence carry hidden meanings or esoteric roots linked to Freemason networks or even the Illuminati? We also bust popular myths, including the idea of a July 4th mass signing, and dive into the symbolism that continues to intrigue theorists today.As a podcaster, historian enthusiast, and CEO of Command Your Brand, I've interviewed countless experts to bring you the most thought-provoking insights into America's founding. This must-watch episode challenges conventional narratives, highlights Enlightenment philosophies, and addresses why July 4th remains a flashpoint for both history and conspiracy.Join the conversation by commenting on your take—do Masonic ties elevate the Founding Fathers' legacy, or raise questions about hidden agendas?

  It's another warm one in Texas - hope your own local weather is doing well for you.   Our Story this week is not necessarily one that you haven't heard before, but the details of just what happened there are not always so clear.   It's the story of what I call "The Most Famous Tea Party in Our History". We have all come to know it as "The Boston Tea Party".   As you listen to this "Party Story" you will see just how close this event was to the passing date of our Declaration of Independence, and that one of our "Sayings" today, "No taxation without Representation", began in this event.   Please make sure that your listeners don't miss this story which was a great part in getting us on our way to our "Freedom Declaration"

From a horrible caffeine delivery system, Jim Folger takes a huge interest in making coffee better and we thank him for it. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom-and-pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us, but we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients. So here's one of those. [Pin Point Payments Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast, where Stephen Semple, who's the guy that you're going to hear next, and myself, David Young. We talk about empires and how they're built and what makes them tick. And if you're listening to us in the morning, it's totally appropriate for the topic that Steven just whispered in my ear, which is Folgers, and immediately popped into my head was the old jingle. The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup. Stephen Semple: And Folgers is what a dominant, dominant, dominant force in the coffee space. In the home ground space the data that I was able to find as they do close to 900 million in sales are basically 27% of the market. Dave Young: My guess is that they in the past have been more than that, but the crafty roasting kind of people have probably been nibbling away at that over the years, but I'll be back in the '70s or '80. Stephen Semple: I didn't go back. Dave Young: They were just a juggernaut. Stephen Semple: And I didn't go back and take a look at that. But look, when you're number one, you're number one, right? That's a big deal. Dave Young: When you and I were kids, nobody was grinding their own beans. You bought a big can of coffee and put it in a percolator. That's what coffee was. Stephen Semple: But the interesting part, we will talk a little bit about that campaign. The best part of Waking Up. That campaign came out in 1984, and prior to that, Maxwell House was actually number one. That campaign allowed them to surpass Maxwell House and become the leader in the space. So it was a very, very successful campaign. Dave Young: It's one of those jingles. I don't know if it's out yet, but I did a copy or a copy, an episode of Sticky Sales, sales stories with Matthew Burns, and we talk about Winston and the power of the Winston Jingle can get in people's heads. And if you were a kid before 1971, you still remember that jingle? Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: And so Folgers, and gosh, you were inundated. You couldn't escape the Folgers jingle. Stephen Semple: And there's the power of the fact that it's a rhyme. The best part of Waking Up. Like rhymes, as we know, have got a rhythm and a power to them. We'll come back to the jingle later, but let's go back to the beginning. Dave Young: Let me put one more little plug-in for that episode with Matthew, because we talk about the scientific reason that audio is so sticky in your head. So it has to do with the brain and humans' unique ability to process sound. And that's the fun part. It's more than just a story of, oh, this is how we sold cigarettes. So anyway, check that out. Stephen Semple: That's awesome. That's awesome. So as we all know- Dave Young: But wait till the end of the podcast. Stephen Semple: So as we all know, the Boston Tea Party was a thing in the United States, and in fact, it actually led to the growth of coffee being something that people started drinking in the United States. It ended up becoming a statement and a revolutionary idea. And coffee houses started to pop up both in the United States and around the world. Dave Young: But it was [inaudible 00:04:58] that tea and the tax on it. Stephen Semple: Yeah, that started getting things going but-

Greg Jenner is joined in the eighteenth century by Professor Frank Cogliano and comedian and actor Patton Oswalt for a special Fourth of July episode all about the American War of Independence. Also known as the American Revolutionary War, 2025 marks 250 years since the start of the conflict in 1775, when the first battles between the British army and the colonial resistance were fought at Lexington and Concord. But what caused Britain's North American colonies to rebel against the king and government in London? At what point did they start to see themselves as American and not British? And how did a colonial militia take on an imperial superpower? This episode charts the growing rift between Britain and its American colonists, taking in famous events like the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party and the calling of the first Continental Congress, all the way through to the Declaration of Independence and the course of the revolutionary war itself. We learn how America fought to free itself from the shackles of British rule, and meet some well-known names from history, including Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin and George Washington. And we also ask whose freedom was being fought for, and who – such as Black and Indigenous Americans – got left behind. If you're a fan of fearless freedom fighters, political wrangling and stunning military victories, you'll love our episode on the American War of Independence.If you want more American political history, listen to our episode on Becoming America, or episodes on abolitionists Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth. And for more independence movements, check out our episode on Simón Bolívar.You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously. Every episode, Greg Jenner brings together the best names in history and comedy to learn and laugh about the past.Hosted by: Greg Jenner Research by: Charlotte Emily Edgeshaw Written by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow, Emma Nagouse, and Greg Jenner Produced by: Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow and Greg Jenner Audio Producer: Steve Hankey Production Coordinator: Ben Hollands Senior Producer: Emma Nagouse Executive Editor: Philip Sellars

On the night of December 25, 1776, General George Washington led a daring and risky crossing of the icy Delaware River during the American Revolution. Facing defeat and low morale, Washington's surprise attack on Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey, became a turning point in the war. With harsh winter weather, dangerous river conditions, and exhausted troops, the crossing was a bold gamble—and it worked. This episode explores the strategy, conditions, and impact of the crossing, and how Washington's leadership helped revive the revolutionary cause at a crucial moment.

Happy Independence Day, Stackers! While fireworks boom and flags wave, we're lighting a spark under your financial life. This episode isn't about tea in harbors—it's about burning down debt, revolting against lifestyle creep, and rallying your family for a better money future. Joining Joe and Doug in the basement for this full-on financial insurrection: Dorethia Kelly, TikTok titan and money coach, shares how she raised her financial flag as a single mom and became a force for smart money choices.

This week is the 4th of July, which means we're celebrating American independence. But what exactly is it that we're celebrating? What's so special about American democracy, and how does it work? And with everything going on in politics, should we be celebrating at all?In a word: yes. America was founded on the principles of liberty, justice, and freedom from the tyranny of kings. And those ideals are as revolutionary today as they were in 1776.This week's episode of Okay, But Why takes a step back into history and examines the founding of our nation, from indigenous cultures to European colonies to the Declaration of Independence. The documents drawn up by the Founding Fathers created the rules for the democracy we have today. They shouldn't be partisan; they're as American as… well, the 4th of July!We cover some things you may have already heard about — like the Boston Tea Party — alongside some lesser-known things like the fact that the first man killed in the Revolutionary War was a Black man, Crispus Attucks. Did you know that Georgia sat out the first Continental Congress? Or that Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution?What we celebrate on Independence Day is about more than a document. It's about a change in mindset – that people deserve the right to determine their own future, rather than one powerful man sitting on a throne. Simply being elected to office doesn't give a president the right to violate the Constitution.Look, is a document from 250 years ago perfect? Of course not. White land-owning men were the only ones who got to have those “unalienable rights,” for starters. That's why Congress has updated it with amendments in the years since, starting with the 1st Amendment granting us the freedom of speech in 1791. But as the foundation of our democracy, the Constitution is a powerful thing. That's why people called June 14th “No Kings Day” and it's why we're celebrating the 4th of July.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

The Boston Tea Party was an opening act in what came to be a violent culture war and war of national liberation.

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy and Massachusetts civics teacher Kelley Brown interview Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jack Rakove, Coe Professor Emeritus at Stanford University. Prof. Rakove explores the origins of the American Revolution and U.S. Constitution through the lives of the nation's Founding Era figures. Reflecting on young John Adams' vivid depiction of his schoolhouse in colonial Massachusetts, Rakove offers context for the political and social landscape of the 18th-century America. He discusses the central constitutional dispute between the British Parliament and the American colonies over political authority, which escalated after the Stamp Act crisis and the Boston Tea Party. Prof. Rakove traces the emergence of the Continental Congress as a revolutionary governing body and its role in declaring independence. He also shares the moral contradictions of liberty in a society dependent on slavery and explains how internal debates over slavery shaped politics within the Continental Congress. Additionally, Prof. Rakove highlights the contributions of Alexander Hamilton and James Madison in building a durable federal constitutional system and explains Madison's critical role in drafting the Bill of Rights. He closes with a reading from Revolutionaries: A New History of the Invention of America.

Stars, Stripes & Summer Traditions on the South Shore By Boston Connect Real Estate As the Fourth of July nears, it's not just about fireworks and flags—it's about the memories we create and the communities we cherish. On a special edition of Talk Real Estate Roundtable, Sharon McNamara welcomed guest Olivia Snyder, a rising senior studying marketing at the University of Tennessee, to reflect on the spirit of Independence Day and summertime on the South Shore and beyond. From the South to the South Shore Olivia, a Pembroke native and Boston Connect family friend, shared her perspective as a Gen Z student navigating today's world of social media and tradition. With roots firmly planted in New England and new experiences growing in the South, Olivia reflected on the contrast between generations and regions. While her college life is filled with Southern pride and line dancing, her fondest summer memories still revolve around early morning beach trips to Duxbury and fireworks in Plymouth. Sharon and Olivia dove into the impact of social media on younger generations—how curated online lives can distort reality and create unnecessary stress. Yet, despite the digital age, what resonates most are the simple, meaningful moments spent with loved ones. Celebrating Independence in True Massachusetts Fashion Massachusetts isn't just another state on the Fourth of July—it's the birthplace of American independence. Sharon reminded listeners that from the Boston Tea Party to Paul Revere's Midnight Ride, this region played a pivotal role in our nation's founding. The Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular and towns like Edgartown, Hingham, and Plymouth carry on that tradition with pride. Did you know Edgartown's first parade was held in 1844? Or that Halifax continues its tradition with fireworks and family activities behind the elementary school? Events like Quincy's three-day Maritime Festival, complete with reenactments and boat displays, are a testament to the community spirit that defines this season. Making Memories That Matter The true beauty of the summer holiday season isn't just in the festivities—it's in the connections. Whether it's a beachside BBQ, a memory of grabbing coffee at Marylou's before heading to Duxbury Beach, or taking a boat into Boston Harbor to watch fireworks over the Charles, these moments are what turn houses into homes. At Boston Connect Real Estate, we believe in celebrating community as much as closing deals. So this Fourth of July, we encourage you to unplug, gather with family and friends, and make memories that last far beyond the summer. Happy Independence Day from all of us at Boston Connect!

 In the lead-up to Independence Day on Friday, each day this week, KYMN's Logan Wells discusses the causes and the events leading up to the American Revolution. In part 2 of the series, they pick up on where they left off in Boston, and the growing protests are leading to the Boston Tea Party, followed by the early conflicts in the revolution, and the forming of the Continental Congress. 

The Boston Tea party is an iconic even that still lives on in American culture and politics.  However, how much do you know about the event itself and what led up to it.  Who planned it? Was it planned at all?  Take a listen this week and find out all about America's favorite protest.

What happens when we take our religious freedom for granted? In this deeply reflective episode, we explore the privilege of worshipping Christ without fear in America – a luxury Christians in Nigeria, Syria, Iran, North Korea, and China don't share. This freedom wasn't free; it was purchased with the blood and sacrifice of countless Americans throughout history.The conversation takes an introspective turn as we examine our modern priorities. While many of us can recite every lyric from our favorite artists or statistics about sports teams, few can name a single Medal of Honor recipient or articulate the sacrifices made to secure our freedoms. Through powerful stories of Medal of Honor recipients like John Lewis Barkley, who single-handedly stopped two enemy counterattacks in World War I, and John Andrew Barnes III, who sacrificed his life by throwing himself on a grenade in Vietnam to save his wounded comrades, we're confronted with the question: What do we truly value as Americans?Historical segments from Fox's Book of Martyrs reveal disturbing accounts of persecution carried out in the name of religion, including horrific torture methods used during the Inquisition. These serve as sobering reminders of what happens when religious authority becomes corrupted by power. Meanwhile, Mercy Otis Warren's account of the Boston Tea Party illustrates how principled resistance to tyranny shaped our nation's founding.As we face today's cultural division, the message becomes clear: America's only hope lies in returning to God, acknowledging our sins individually and nationally, and embracing the redemptive power of Christ. Without this spiritual foundation, no political solution can address the fundamental issues plaguing our society. Our experiment in liberty began with acknowledgment of divine Providence – its continuation depends on rediscovering this essential truth.Subscribe now to join our growing community of listeners passionate about preserving America's spiritual heritage and applying timeless principles to today's challenges.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

Protesting is part of the First Amendment rights we have as Americans. They can be positive, such as the Boston Tea Party, the Civil Rights Movement or the March for Life. Or, they can be negative such as Pride parades and the BLM riots of 2020.
How should Christians think through protests? Using No Kings as an example, Kenna and Jenna discuss God's justice, the command to be self-controlled and investigating the purpose of a protest before joining in.… Continue Reading

On April 18, 1775, a Boston-based silversmith, engraver, and staunch anti-British political operative named Paul Revere set out on the most famous horse ride in American history. A century later it inspired the poem and legend of "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere." But the story is deeper and richer than we've all assumed. Acclaimed writer and editor Kostya Kennedy, through extraordinary and extensive research, has uncovered new and enlightening information on that amazing - including the women who were involved and African Americans in Boston - event presented now in his new book, THE RIDE: Paul Revere and the Night That Saved America (St. Martin's Press, On Sale Date 3/25/25, $30.00). Revere was not the only rider on the night of April 18, 1775, but he was by far the most critical. The Patriots best and most trusted "express rider" he had already completed at least 18 previous rides throughout New England, disseminating intelligence about British movements. But this ride was like no other, and its consequences in the months and years following - as the American Revolution transitioned from isolated skirmishes to a full-fledged war - became one of our founding tales. In THE RIDE, Kostya Kennedy presents a dramatic new narrative of the events of Revere's ride, informed by fresh primary and secondary research into archives, family letters and diaries, contemporary accounts, and more. What he found are never before, or rarely, discussed events, before and after the ride, including: *On the night of the ride, Paul Revere was already the go-to rider for the revolution, called upon to make the most critical rides: in December 1773 he rode hundreds of miles south to New York and Philadelphia to deliver news of The Boston Tea Party.*Revere never said, "The British are coming!" during the ride.*On the night of the ride, Revere rode on a borrowed horse that was then taken from him by British officers; Revere never saw the horse again.*The "sea," in "one if by land, two if by sea," refers to the Charles River.*Revere intentionally did not carry his pistol on the night of the ride, which may have saved his life.*At the start of the ride, Revere was rowed quietly over the Charles River from Boston to Charlestown, along the way eluding lookouts stationed on a British warship.*Other riders galloped through the countryside that night carrying the alarm and nearly all of them were set in motion by Revere's alarm.*Only one other rider departed from Boston, William Dawes, who left over land across Boston Neck; as Dawes got past British guards he pretended he was a drunk country bumpkin. Kennedy's work shows the Revere ride to be vastly more complex than is usually portrayed. It was a coordinated ride of some 40 men that included near-disasters, capture by British forces, and ultimately success. While Paul Revere was central to the ride and its plotting, the author reveals the myriad other men - and women! - who proved crucial to the events that helped set in motion what would lead to America's independence. Thrillingly written in a dramatic heart-stopping narrative, THE RIDE re-tells the essential American story of our nation's awakening for a new generation of readers. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

I love American history, and finding tidbits of unknown or misunderstood/inaccurate ideas are some of my favorite ones to discover.  Put it all in a boo about spies during the War for Independence? SOLD!  Listen in to see what you'll find in Megan Soja's Secrets of the Revolution. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. In this episode we had a great conversation about what other realities of life were like during the colonial era and what really happened during the Boston Tea Party.   Secrets of the Revolution by Megan Soja The cause of liberty brought them together. Will it also tear them apart? Hannah Pierce is determined to keep her father‘s apothecary shop running, despite his failing health, the heavy burden of her mother's recent death, and the mysterious disappearance of her brother. She'll do whatever it takes to preserve her family's legacy, including joining a dangerous ring of patriot spies...and falling for a revolutionary printer with a brave heart. William Abbott always keeps his promises. He vowed long ago to never abandon those in need like his father did. So when new British acts of Parliament threaten Boston and endanger his family, he throws himself into serving the Patriot cause, using his position at the printing office to gather and spread intelligence. But when his clandestine role in the newly formed spy ring causes him to cross paths with the apothecary's beautiful daughter, he may find himself fighting for more than the cause. As tensions in Boston reach a breaking point, Will and Hannah find their bond deepening even as the noose tightens around the spy ring. When promises and determination are not enough to protect the ones they love, they'll need to trust God if they are to survive what is to come.

De derde woensdag in mei is Verantwoordingsdag. President Pieter Duisenberg van de Algemene Rekenkamer presenteert dan zijn onderzoek naar het regeringsbeleid van het afgelopen jaar. "Ja, dat is dus ook de dag van de belastingbetalers, omdat die dan inzicht krijgen wat ministers doen met hun geld”, zegt hij. In gesprek met Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger kraakt hij een reeks harde noten. Veel gaat naar behoren, de financiën en hun beheer zijn snel hersteld van de klappen uit de coronajaren. Toch noteert Duisenberg een ‘zorgelijke reeks' ernstige problemen; hij deelt zelfs 'rode kaarten' uit aan ministers.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Stel duidelijke doelen. Beloof niet wat je niet aankunt. Wees duidelijk en eerlijk over de resultaten.Duisenberg noemt het regeerprogramma van het kabinet-Schoof wat betreft zulke beginselen van goed bestuur ‘teleurstellend'. Doelen, resultaten en instrumenten zijn vaag of ontbreken soms geheel. Zo zijn de ramingen voor het beleid van Asiel en Migratie al zo'n twintig jaar een rommelpot. Voortdurend moet met noodmaatregelen bijgesprongen worden en dat is erg duur, inefficiënt en zet mensen soms letterlijk in de kou. Als het kabinet dit terrein zo belangrijk acht, zou juist hier realistisch ramen en plannen voorop moeten staan. Ook de enorme bezuiniging van 22% op de uitgaven voor rijksambtenaren is wel erg ondoorzichtig. Duisenberg constateert dat het aantal ambtenaren alleen maar stijgt, ook de inhuur van externen, en dat een fundamentele aanpak alleen lukt als overheidstaken veel eenvoudiger ingericht worden. "Begin dan meteen met de WIA." Hiermee dreigen miljarden aan gaten in de kabinetsplannen. "Dat zijn uitgestelde teleurstellingen die je nu al ziet aankomen. Dan moet je bijsturen en corrigeren." Zo stelt het kabinet dat Nederland ‘de top van de mobiliteit wil zijn'. Duisenberg: "Wat is dat, de top? Als je dat niet concreet maakt en de plannen niet kunt financieren, is dat geen serieus beleidsdoel." Zeker niet als tegelijkertijd bruggen op instorten staan. Bovendien blijven zaken liggen die juist veel kunnen opleveren. Het saneren van ondoelmatige fiscale regelingen kan 30 miljard euro besparen. "Stoppen tenzij. Dat is dan de stelregel voor effectief beleid." Duisenberg stelt vast dat het kabinet hier aanvankelijk slechts 250 miljoen wilde besparen en inmiddels nog minder. “Dat schiet niet op.”Bij Defensie zijn de uitdagingen enorm. "Kwetsbaar" zegt Duisenberg eufemistisch. Niet alleen blijkt de beveiliging er nog steeds volstrekt niet op orde - zelfs bij de cruciale kabels voor cyberverkeer - ook blijft veel op de plank liggen of onuitgevoerd. De aangekondigde expansie van uitgaven roept vooral kopzorgen op. Duisenberg maant dat men hier ‘écht realistisch ramen moet'; ook met de NAVO-partners samen zodat niet ieder land voor zich maar aanrommelt. Beloven wat je helemaal niet aan kunt, is - zeker hier - funest. En dan blijkt ook nog dat Nederland de afspraak om 2 procent van het bnp aan defensie te besteden alleen op papier blijkt te halen. De Rekenkamer ontdekte verschil tussen de veel te positieve raming bij Financiën vergeleken met het behaalde resultaat op Defensie. Dit wegmoffelen wekt weinig vertrouwen in aanloop naar de NAVO-top in Den Haag. Geen wonder dat de Rekenkamer in NAVO en in EU-verband nadrukkelijk actief wordt. Duisenberg vertelt over een alliantie met de Duitsers, Tsjechen en Slovenen om verantwoording van defensie-uitgaven beter te borgen.Ook vertelt hij over een fors conflict met minister Eelco Heinen (Financiën) over hoe Nederland zijn nationale balans formuleert en daar toezicht op houdt. Nederland is hier 'een Asterix-dorpje' in Europa.Juist omdat na de bankencrisis, de coronacrisis en de energiecrisis de situatie weer meer op orde is gekomen, is de Rekenkamer streng. Ook naar de Tweede Kamer. Zij moet haar budgetrecht actiever hanteren, bijvoorbeeld door de speciale controle-aanpak bij 'grote projecten' veel vaker en stevig in te zetten. "Doen wat je belooft," zegt Pieter Duisenberg.***Verder luisteren504 - Een jaar HOOP, LEF EN TROTS501 - Den Haag zonder Omtzigt en een Voorjaarsnota zonder beleid493 - Het belastingkaartenhuis wankelt476 – Trump II en de gevolgen voor Europa en de NAVO466 - Behandeling Onderwijsbegroting werd parcours vol struikelpartijen en miskleunen426 - Een doodgewoon meerderheidskabinet met een allesbepalende financiële plaat423 – Eerst zien, dan geloven – Rekenkamerpresident Pieter Duisenberg over de controle op de rijksuitgaven410 - De Pirouette van Putters382 - 250 jaar Verenigde Staten: de Boston Tea Party en de rechtsbescherming van belastingbetalers in Nederland349 - Woensdag gehaktdag: de regering zakt door het ijs, waarschuwen Rekenkamer en Raad van State291 – De dubbele jaren van staatssecretaris Marnix van Rij275 - Nina Olson: Waarom Nederland net als de VS een Taxpayer Advocate moet krijgen268 - En hoe moet het dan met Prinsjesdag?

Samuel Adams was called “the most elegant writer, the most sagacious politician, and celebrated patriot” by John Adams, his second cousin, and was applauded by other colleagues such as Thomas Jefferson. A mastermind behind the Boston Tea Party who helped mobilize the colonies to revolution, he is nonetheless an often overlooked figure amongst the Founding Fathers. Historian Stacy Schiff examines his transformation from the listless, failing son of a wealthy family into the tireless, silver-tongued revolutionary who rallied the likes of John Hancock and John Adams behind him. Recorded on November 28, 2023

The Boston Tea Party was one of the most iconic events leading up to the American Revolution.  Join us today, by clicking on the picture below, as we visit the Boston Tea Party Museum in Boston, Massachusetts and you will see the only known Tea Chest to have been part of that historic event.  Revolutionary War Rarities is the podcast from The Sons of the American Revolution.

Social movements – and the protests they give rise to – have happened on American soil since before the country's establishment as an independent nation. On Dec. 16, 1773, American colonists demonstrated their dissatisfaction with British tax policies by dressing in disguise and dumping 342 chests – around 92,000 pounds – of valuable tea into Boston Harbor. Originally known as “the Destruction of the Tea,” the event was later nicknamed “the Boston Tea Party.” In this century, we've seen part of that moniker repurposed by the tea party movement, a group interested in lower taxes and decreased government spending who staged protests in over 750 U.S. cities on April 15, 2009 – Tax Day. Social injustices, environmental issues and political concerns are just a few of myriad reasons people have organized protests over the course of history. David S. Meyer, UC Irvine professor of sociology, political science, and urban planning and public policy, is one of the nation's top scholars on social movements. In this episode of The UC Irvine Podcast, Meyer leans on years of study to put today's realities into historical perspective, analyze the current state of polarization and share what he's learned about how action can spark change. “Downpour,” the music for this episode, was provided by Patiño via the audio library in YouTube Studio.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas engages historian John Ferling in a deep exploration of the American Revolution, emphasizing its global implications and the international dynamics that shaped the conflict. Ferling discusses his extensive research, the surprising elements he uncovered, and the various perspectives from both American and British sides. The conversation also delves into the role of France in the revolution, the impact of propaganda, and the reasons behind Britain's eventual defeat. Links Shots Heard Around the World Book Link (Amazon) Shots Heart Around the World Book Link (Bookshop.org) John Ferling's Website Friends of Anglotopia Club Takeaways The American Revolution was a global conflict involving multiple powers. John Ferling's career as a historian began with a transformative college course. Research revealed significant internal dissent in Britain during the war. The Boston Tea Party marked a turning point in British-American relations. Colonial unity was underestimated by British leaders. The role of propaganda was crucial in shaping public opinion on both sides. France's secret aid was motivated by a desire for revenge against Britain. The French alliance was solidified after the American victory at Saratoga. The British military strategy was hampered by logistical challenges. Ultimately, Britain's resources were insufficient to sustain a global war. Soundbites "The American Revolution wasn't just fought in North America—there was fighting in the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, on the subcontinent. It really was a global war and a very long war... America's longest war until the war in Vietnam." - John Ferling "I didn't realize that there was as much internal dissension and opposition to the war in Great Britain. By the time a couple of years had gone by, it began to appear as though this was a sinkhole that the British had gotten into... In a sense, it reminded me of the opposition to the war in Vietnam." - John Ferling "Even after the war began for more than a year, about 13-14 months after the war began, the majority of delegates in Congress still were in favor of reconciliation with Britain. They weren't pushing for independence." - John Ferling "The Boston Tea Party makes it sound like a lark, but the fact was that in today's currency, millions of dollars in private property had been destroyed. After that, the mood in England is really to get tough." - John Ferling "What surprised me about Lord North was that he's kind of like the proverbial man riding on the back of a tiger. He can't get off the tiger without being destroyed." - John Ferling "When you go to war, it's like opening the door into a dark room. You don't know what's in that room. And there's always some surprises." - John Ferling "The British underestimated just the size of America... It's a very large continent. And it was so large, in fact, that the Royal Navy, strongest Navy in the world at the time, really could not maintain the embargo that it tried to impose on American trade." - John Ferling "The French believed that the real source of British strength that had enabled Britain to win the Seven Years War was their possession of the American colonies... If the colonists would break away, become independent, then Britain would lose that source of wealth and France would be able to gain its revenge." - John Ferling Chapters 00:00 Exploring the American Revolution's Global Impact 05:28 John Ferling's Journey as a Historian 10:18 Research Insights and Surprises 16:22 The Importance of Multiple Perspectives 18:22 Inevitability of the American Revolution 25:53 Points of No Return in the Conflict 29:45 The British Response to Colonial Trade 31:21 Opposition to the War in Britain 36:15 Underestimating American Resistance 42:28 The Role of Propaganda in the War 45:41 France's Secret Aid to the Americans 52:56 France's Open Support for the Revolution 56:50 Why Britain Lost the War 01:03:00 anglotopia-podcast-outro.mp4 Video Version

I think it might be time for another Boston Tea Party. What do you think? Back in the day, our colonist forefathers were peeved that the Brits imposed a tax on them. We didn't even have representation in their government. So what did they do? They dumped tea off the boats and into the Boston harbor. And this wasn't a small event. They disposed of 92,000 pounds (roughly 46 tons) of tea. More than 240 chests full of tea were smashed open with axes and spilled into the water. In today's money, that racked up more than $1,700,000 dollars of damage. This was all over a 3 cent tax per pound on tea. Yes , three cents. And it wasn't considered high for the time. And get this, it wasn't even a new tax. Parliament had introduced it in 1767 as part of the larger “Townshend Revenue Acts.” This imposed tariffs on colonial purchases of molasses, sugar, tea, glass, and some other products. All were canceled after colonial protest — yet the tea tax remained in place. Here's my question: when are Americans going to start dumping imported goods in the harbor? Do you think that the colonists would be putting on a lobster uniform and saluting the King saying we must do as our master says? No, but somehow MAGA - who supposedly hates taxes and big government - are donning a red cap and bending the knee to a man who thinks he's a king and ready and willing to pay 145% in tariffs on Chinese goods. They'll even defend how he tanked the market - because if you're not enjoying watching your 401k circle drain then are you even American?

Learn the real story of Lexington & Concord on April 19, 1775 and the Shot Heard 'Round the World — which changed America and the world forever.Well before the Declaration of Independence, the British had determined that they would end Americans' resistance to British tyranny by crushing them militarily.The British believed that they would easily cower the Americans into submission with a decisive military strike and the arrest of some of the leaders of the resistance, especially John Hancock and Samuel Adams.Follow the Patriots and the British during the lead up to the Battles of Lexington and Concord, and experience the battles first hand. Explore what really happened on Paul Revere's ride, and discover the unsung heroes Dr. Joseph Warren, William Dawes, and others.The British confrontation at Lexington sparked the Shot Heard ‘Round the World and ended in a small massacre of Americans.The British confrontation in Concord was eventually driven off, and the British were lucky to escape with their lives over a long and harrowing retreat. They suffered many casualties and inflicted barbaric attacks on Americans.The colonies were not cowed into submission but rallied to military action and to militarily surround British occupied Boston.Although it would take more than a year for Americans to make the final break with the English Empire with the Declaration of Independence, the stage was set, and over a decade of political and economic resistance to English oppression transfigured into open warfare.Highlights include the Boston Tea Party, Intolerable Acts a/k/a Coercive Acts, King George III, Lord Dartmouth a/k/a William Ledge, House of Commons, Earl of Sandwich a/k/a/ John Montagu, John Pitcairn, General Thomas Gage, Boston Port Act (1774), Green Dragon Tavern, colonial intelligence committees, John Hancock, Dr. Joseph Warren, Benjamin Church, Samuel Adams, Lexington Massachusetts, Concord Massachusetts, Paul Revere, “one if by land and two if by sea” lantern warning signal by Paul Revere, North Church, John Crozie, Cambridge Massachusetts, Sons of Liberty, William Dawes, Reverend Jonas Clark, Charlestown Neck, Captain John Parker, Sylanus Wood, Robert Douglass, Major Mitchel, Paul Revere & William Dawes Midnight Ride, April 19 1775, Buckman Tavern, Shot Heard ‘Round the World, Lieutenant John Barker, King's Own Royal Regiment of Lancaster, Dr. Samuel Prescott, General John Palmer, Phillip's Farm, Israel Bissel, colonial militia, Colonel James Barrett, Concord River, redcoats, minutemen, John Barker, Lieutenant Frederick MacKenzie, “King Hancock forever!”, Brigadier General Earl Percy, Reverend Jonas Clark, John E.

Wer am 19.4.1775 bei Lexington tatsächlich den ersten Schuss abgab, ist bis heute ungewiss. Fest steht: Es war der Startschuss zum Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg. Von Murat Kayi.

Den amerikanska revolutionen var mer än bara en kamp om representation och frihet. I Boston var flera av de ledande revolutionärerna rika handelsmän som såg sina affärsintressen hotade av brittiska tullar. I Philadelphia och New York växte motståndsnätverk fram som försvarade rätten till fri handel.Under 1700-talet var dessa tre städer sammanlänkade genom ett livligt nätverk av både laglig handel och en omfattande smuggling. Tillsammans utgjorde de ett slags ekonomiskt kluster som agerade mer som rivaler än lydiga provinser under London. Genom smuggling och handelsförbindelser med franska, portugisiska och nederländska hamnar byggde de upp ett parallellt system som effektivt kringgick brittiska handelshinder.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med ekonomhistorikern Jeremy Land om de ekonomiska orsakerna bakom den amerikanska revolutionen. Han är aktuell med boken Colonial Ports, Global Trade, and the Roots of the American Revolution (1700–1776).När vi tänker på den amerikanska revolutionen är det ofta dramatiska scener som dyker upp: Boston Tea Party, vapenskrammel vid Lexington och Concord, rop om frihet och självständighet. Men kampen för ekonomisk frihet från kolonialmakten Storbritannien föregick den politiska självständigheten.Storbritannien försökte tygla denna utveckling med lagar och tullar, men saknade resurser för att få full kontroll. Tulltjänstemän var få och ofta korrumperade, och lokala handelsmän hade både pengar och makt att göra motstånd. Denna relativa ekonomiska frihet ledde till en form av mental och praktisk självständighet långt innan självständighetsförklaringen skrevs. Boston, New York och Philadelphia började agera som ekonomiska aktörer med egna intressen – inte som kuggar i ett imperium.När britterna på 1760-talet skärpte tonen med skatter som Stamp Act och Townshend Acts utbröt inte bara vrede – utan också organiserat motstånd. Bojkotter, smuggling och politisk mobilisering blev vardag. Det var handelsmännen, de ekonomiska motorerna i kolonierna, som ofta stod i spetsen för revolutionen.Det är i skärningspunkten mellan ekonomi och politik som den amerikanska revolutionen verkligen tar form. De koloniala hamnarna var inte bara strategiska punkter på en karta – de var hjärtat i en ekonomisk förändring som gjorde revolutionen oundviklig.Det var köpmännen i hamnstäderna som i praktiken började skriva självständighetens förhistoria. Långt innan de första skotten avlossades i Lexington, pågick en annan kamp – tystare, men minst lika avgörande – i hamnmagasin, på handelsfartyg och i de koloniala gatornas skuggor.Bild: Förstörelsen av teet i Bostons hamn, en ikonisk litografi från 1846 av Nathaniel Currier; uttrycket "Boston Tea Party" hade ännu inte blivit vedertaget.

On April 18, 1775, a Boston-based silversmith, engraver, and staunch anti-British political operative named Paul Revere set out on the most famous horse ride in American history. A century later it inspired the poem and legend of "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere." But the story is deeper and richer than we've all assumed. Acclaimed writer and editor Kostya Kennedy, through extraordinary and extensive research, has uncovered new and enlightening information on that amazing - including the women who were involved and African Americans in Boston - event presented now in his new book, THE RIDE: Paul Revere and the Night That Saved America (St. Martin's Press, On Sale Date 3/25/25, $30.00). Revere was not the only rider on the night of April 18, 1775, but he was by far the most critical. The Patriots best and most trusted "express rider" he had already completed at least 18 previous rides throughout New England, disseminating intelligence about British movements. But this ride was like no other, and its consequences in the months and years following - as the American Revolution transitioned from isolated skirmishes to a full-fledged war - became one of our founding tales. In THE RIDE, Kostya Kennedy presents a dramatic new narrative of the events of Revere's ride, informed by fresh primary and secondary research into archives, family letters and diaries, contemporary accounts, and more. What he found are never before, or rarely, discussed events, before and after the ride, including: *On the night of the ride, Paul Revere was already the go-to rider for the revolution, called upon to make the most critical rides: in December 1773 he rode hundreds of miles south to New York and Philadelphia to deliver news of The Boston Tea Party.*Revere never said, "The British are coming!" during the ride.*On the night of the ride, Revere rode on a borrowed horse that was then taken from him by British officers; Revere never saw the horse again.*The "sea," in "one if by land, two if by sea," refers to the Charles River.*Revere intentionally did not carry his pistol on the night of the ride, which may have saved his life.*At the start of the ride, Revere was rowed quietly over the Charles River from Boston to Charlestown, along the way eluding lookouts stationed on a British warship.*Other riders galloped through the countryside that night carrying the alarm and nearly all of them were set in motion by Revere's alarm.*Only one other rider departed from Boston, William Dawes, who left over land across Boston Neck; as Dawes got past British guards he pretended he was a drunk country bumpkin. Kennedy's work shows the Revere ride to be vastly more complex than is usually portrayed. It was a coordinated ride of some 40 men that included near-disasters, capture by British forces, and ultimately success. While Paul Revere was central to the ride and its plotting, the author reveals the myriad other men - and women! - who proved crucial to the events that helped set in motion what would lead to America's independence. Thrillingly written in a dramatic heart-stopping narrative, THE RIDE re-tells the essential American story of our nation's awakening for a new generation of readers. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

During the early days of the American Revolution, British Americans attempted to sway their fellow Britons with consumer politics. In 1768 and 1769, they organized a non-consumption movement of British goods to protest the Townshend Duties. In 1774, they arranged a non-importation and non-exportation movement to protest the Tea Act and Coercive Acts. Why did the colonists protest the Tea Act and Coercive Acts? Why did they chose to protest those acts with the consumer politics of a non-importation/non-exportation program? James Fichter, the author of Tea: Consumption, Politics, and Revolution, 1773-1776, joins us to explore the Tea Crisis of 1773 and the resulting non-importation/non-exportation movement the colonists organized after Parliament passed the Coercive Acts.
