“We have only been making a little salt-water tea.”  This is the story of the Boston Tea Party. The East India Company and the needs of the global British Empire are intertwined, and Parliament–ready for a third tax initiative in North America–wants the colonials to swallow an EIC monopoly on tea.  The East India Company sends its tea to America on seven ships. Four head to Boston. Three will make it. To be clear: the ships make it. The tea won’t. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
