The Boston Tea Party as Direct Action -- Benjamin Carp
Episode 194
Published 7 hours ago
Description
Historian Benjamin Carp joins me to discuss The Boston Tea Party and how we should remember it today. We particularly discuss the tea party's place in revolutionary history, the radicalism embedded in the New England colonies, and whether or not labels like "direct action" or "civil disobedience" should be applied to it.
