The daughters of liberty was a colonial american group that was formed by women who displayed their patriotism by participating in boycotts of British goods following the passage of the Townshend Acts.
The Daughters of Liberty used their traditional skills to weave yarn and wool into fabric. They were recognized as patriotic heros for their success to make America less dependent on British textiles.
They openly opposed the Tea Act.
They experimented to find substitutes for taxed goods such as tea and sugar.
They helped end the Stamp Act in 1766. In 1774, the patriot women helped influence a decision made by the Continental Congress to boycott all British goods.
