Answer:

One act of the British government that has denied colonial freedom is the Stamp Act (1765).

Step-by-step explanation:

The Stamp Act imposed a new tax on American colonists. For every piece of printed paper they used (including legal documents, licences, and even playing cards) the colonists had to pay a tax. Upon passing the Act, the authorities met with strong colonial resistance. This eventually resulted in the Parliament's repeal of the Act in 1766.
