HISTORICAL CONTENT: At the First Continental Congress, representatives of each colony meet as a group for the first time. Sam and John Adams argue that the Intolerable Acts are not just a New England problem, they are an "American problem." The British shut down Boston Harbor to all trade and this further infuriates the colonists.

EMOTIONAL TAKEAWAY: Violence can get out of hand, no matter how noble the cause, and must never be used but as a last resort.
