Harmony and Insurrection - Boston Letter to Dennys DeBert September 22nd 1768

What do we do when a country is being divided? When "enemies" are skewing events, blowing things out of perspective, and demonizing us? When we are being labeled as "dangerous" and "a threat"? Well, lets take a peek into a similar situation back in 1768, and see how a Boston town meeting wrote to their London agent and explained events that had been used to stoke division. Maybe there is something for us today. 

 

P.S. I know it's the 30th not the 29th. :-)
