Respuesta :

It's probable going to be A.

Answer:

The correct answer is option D) organizing protests against the British Sugar Act and Stamp Act.

Explanation:

Samuel Adams was a powerful and influential individual who took part in the opposition against the British taxation, especially against the Sugar Act (a revenue-raising act) and the Stamp Act, which consisted in imposing taxes on legal and commercial documents. Adams was one of the first to oppose these measures taken by the British government and to cry out for no taxation without representation. He was also one of the planners of the Boston Tea Party, which resulted in more taxation and punishment to the colonies.
