How did the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts further Adams's career as an agitator?

Explanation:

1764, Adams had engaged in a number of unsuccessful careers and failed business ventures. The Sugar Act provided the floundering Adams a fresh opportunity y for achievement. Adams attacked the new taxes on sugar as an unreasonable la w that violated every person’ s natural right to be taxed only b y legally elected representatives. In shaping the protest argument as he did, Adams set the tone for colonial resistance to parliamentary policies. When Parliament passedthe Stamp Act in 1765, Adams expanded his protest activities. Through a steady stream of fiery newspaper essays, he inspired patriots in Massachusetts to hang stamp officials in effigy and even to destroy the home of the royal governor. He also helped organize the Sons of Liberty y to oppose the obnoxious act. Parliament’s repeal of the Stamp Act temporarily ended colonial protests, but the Townshend Acts of 1767 revived resistance, giving Adams a new opportunity to protest against taxation without representation. Adams seized the opportunity to organiz e an effectiv e boycott of British-made goods imported into the colonies. Repeal of the Townshend Acts in 1770 did little to diminish Adams’s rebellious activities. He led the demand for the removal of British troops from Boston following the Boston Massacre. In 1772 he was instrumental in forming Boston’ s Committee of Correspondence to coordinate and communicatewith Patriots in other locations.When Parliament passed the Coerciv e (Intolerable) Acts in response to the Boston Tea Party, Adams organized another boycott of British goods and called for an intercolonial congress. A participant in both Continental Congresses, Adams b y this time had become such a leader of anti-British activit y that he—along with John Hancock—was singled out b y the British as exempt from an y future amnesty. After the achievement of independence, Samuel Adams remained activ e in public life. He served in the Massachusetts convention called to ratify the new Constitution and later held the offices of lieutenant-governor and then governor. But he never again found a role so well suited to him as the one he played as America’s foremost agitator.

the compromise of 1850 was a package of five separate bills passed by the united states congress in september 1850, which defused a four-year political confrontation between slave and free states on the status of territories acquired during the mexican–american war
