Some 1776 fanart i made last year but never posted. I think there should be more fan content of john adams and ben franklin being weird besties because that dynamic is top tier

So here's my one question about the staircase scene (you know, this moment)
Tumblr media
Do you think they were aware at the time at how suggestive that was going to seem?

1776 (1972) - DIR. PETER STONE
Thomas Jefferson, who was a slave owner, wrote a clause in an early draft of the Declaration of Independence abolishing slavery. And the climax of 1776 is the fight over that paragraph. The delegates from the South want it cut; the delegates from the North want to keep it. Diane Paulus said the words they are fighting over "called out slavery as an excuse for commerce. I didn't know that in my American history education, I wasn't aware of this," she said. "It was this musical that taught me that ... the institution of slavery was being discussed in 1776. And there was an opportunity for it to go into this founding document of the Declaration of Independence. But for the sake of unanimity, it was crossed out." - Diane Paulus, 1776 revival director [ X ]

Do you know who the true MVP of 1776 was?
Robert Livingston.
Why, you may ask?
Because in But Mr. Adams, Robert Livingston watches everyone else (other than Jefferson, of course) get asked to write the declaration.
And by the time Adams asks Livingston, Adams is not saying "You should write it." He says, "Maybe you should write it." As for his reasons why, they're lackluster.
And yet. And yet, Robert Livingston proves his amiability and diplomacy. He doesn't say "But Mr. Adams." He is, in fact, the only person to say "Dear Mr. Adams."
And finally, just look at the man.
Tumblr media
Despite low-key being insulted, he's still just here to have a good time.
And thus, I rest my case 😌
