The correct answer is C. Sons of liberty formed to lead popular protests against the Stamp Act.

Explanation:

Sons of Liberty was a secret organization of American patriots that originated in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution.

It consisted of an organization of American patriots that was formed in the pre-independence of British colonialism from North America. The group was formed to protect the rights of the settlers and to take to the streets protests against the taxes and usurpations made by the British government after 1766. They became known for holding the Boston Tea Party in 1773, which triggered a series of acts of intense repression by the British government, leading to a backlash by the Patriots that led directly to the American Revolutionary War in 1775.

the assassination of president lincoln was just one part of a larger plot to decapitate the federal government of the u.s. after the civil war. the first reaction to lincoln’s death was disbelief. then it quickly changed to grief. abraham lincoln’s death created an outpouring of grief from citizens in both the north and the south.

explanation:

lincoln was the first u.s. president to be assassinated. president abraham lincoln, america’s civil war leader, was assassinated just five days after confederate general robert e. lee surrendered his army at appomattox court house, ending the four-year war between the states. on the evening of april 14, 1865, lincoln was attending a performance of our american cousin at ford’s theatre in washington, d.c. john wilkes booth – a 26-year old actor, confederate sympathizer, and white supremacist – slipped into the presidential box and shot lincoln in the head. john wilkes booth and his conspirators had initially planned to kidnap lincoln to save the confederate states. but as the confederacy faltered, booth’s thoughts turned to murder. booth may have decided to act on his hatred after lincoln endorsed giving the right to vote to african-american men who had served in the union army.
