In 1765, after the British passed the Stamp Act, a 29-year-old freshman legislator in Virginia named Patrick Henry pushed back - hard. His Virginia Resolves didn’t just protest a tax; they rejected Parliament’s power outright and called for resistance. “If this be treason…” he thundered in support of them. When government tried to silence the message, Henry stood firm - and the other colonies joined in, publishing every single word. On this episode, learn the defiance, the suppression, and the spark that lit the fuse.
