Summary
Every now and then a government does something that goes just a bit too far and causes the people to protest. One such example was the British imposition of the Stamp Act on the American Colonies. What was the Stamp Act? What was the so-called justification for it? What was the reaction from the Americans? To help us tackle this important event that helped usher in a growing anti-monarchy sentiment that culminated in the American Revolution, we are delighted to welcome Scot Faulkner as our special guest today. Scot Faulkner is longtime friend of Constituting America and served as the first-ever Chief Administrative Officer for the U.S. House of Representatives and is Vice President of Shepherd University's George Washington Institute of Living Ethics.
