Yeah, but wasn´t the Boston Tea Party mainly provoked by the new tax imposed by the British crown to tea sales in the colonies? That´s what eventually led to the Independence War and, thus, to the July 4th fireworks.
The real problem was the attempt to give the East India Company a monopoly on tea. The fact that it was taxed (at 5d/lb, just a twelfth of what the English paid) was used as justification for the boycott, but the real reason was the blow to independent merchants and smugglers. Smuggling tea was big business in the 18th Century.
Parliament's response to the notoriety of the Boston Tea Party was the "Intolerable Acts", which closed Boston harbor and abridged other civil rights in Massachusetts. This caused aggrieved Colonials to form the First Continental Congress, which called for a (successful) boycott of all British goods. (It was the
Second Continental Congress that declared independence, making the foundation of the July 4th holiday.)
Again, the Colonial women held the power of the market, and it was they who made the boycott effective.
