YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMost Americans know the Boston Tea Party, but few have heard of the dramatic act of defiance that came first. In this speech, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse recounts how Rhode Islanders captured a British ship, took its crew prisoner, and destroyed the vessel years before the Declaration of Independence. It’s a remarkable Revolutionary War story that many believe deserves far more attention.
