â No taxation without representation â refers to the slogan from 1750s and 1760s that encapsulates the prime grievance of the Thirteen Colonies. It is actually part of a sermon given by Jonathan Mayhew in 1750. It was also one of the causes of the American Revolution.
At this time the identity of the colonist as Americans began to emerge as they joint forces to coordinate efforts in a common cause. The American view against British taxation was best represented by The Sons of Liberty headed by Samuel Adams who advocated for âNo British taxation without representationâ.
