1776 moments/theories that I love:

-McKean holding onto Rodney as he stands up to say “yea”

-McKean would have shot Read if Rodney wasn’t in the picture.

-Thomson is conflicted about weather he’s in love with Washington or Hancock. But eventually he realizes he’s more in love with Hancock and that’s why he always looks at Hancock in affectionate ways.

-Rutledge staring at Hall throughout the film.

-When Hall comes in at night to tell Adams he’s figured things out, I personally believe that he was sleeping with Rutledge at that time.

-The Rutledge/Hewes relationship mirrors The Dickinson/Wilson relationship, because Dickinson never lets Wilson speak and interrupts him, and Rutledge never lets North Carolina/Hewes vote for themselves and basically votes FOR them and forces Hewes to say “nay”

-The reason Thomson is so prissy and acts annoyed most of the time is because Hancock probably turned him down or he’s too afraid to ask him out.

-Wilson is autistic and he doesn’t understand the concept of not seconding his delegates own motion.

-Hopkins secretly picking up a pint of Rum and motioning to Morris to not tell Hancock about it.

-Rutledge fell in love with Hall the second he laid eyes on him.

-Hopkins knew what was going on immediately and that’s why he interrupted Hall and Rutledge’s little moment after “your servant, Mr Rutledge”

-Franklin and Adams cuddled while in New Brunswick.

-After Franklin yells at Adams, Adams probably cries for a minute before running up to the bell tower.

-When Rodney is introducing Hall to Wilson, Dickinson is speaking to Rutledge in the background, probably convincing Rutledge to ask Hall out.

-Thomson wearing his hat while walking into independence hall 🫶🏻😭

[here-a-lee-there-a-lee]

how does 1776 expect me to mentally recover from the ending where everyone is standing while signing the declaration of independence while the liberty bell rings after 2 hours and 47 minutes of jefferson and adams having sexual tension, jefferson’s wife using metaphors to describe her husband’s violin playing, benjamin franklin in himself, charles thomson becoming an emoji dictionary, abigail adams needing pins, edward rutledge losing his sanity, caesar rodney almost dying, everyone complaining about flies and how hot it is, john hancock committing treason with his big signature, richard henry lee dancing around talking about ladies and the resolution on independency, robert livingston’s on-fleek eyebrows, john witherspoon sleeping and defending his aunt, samuel chase eating causally, james wilson’s existence, and the dickinson-adams brawl???

[katiemcgrath]

Let’s go through these names:

Sarah Reed (Black), 32, had severe mental health issues which was known to prison officers and doctors. She had been complaining about being unwell and untreated to her mum for a long time. She was found dead in her cell at Holloway Prison in 2012, they lied and said she was found hanging in her cell, she wasn’t - she was found in her bed. There’s video footage of a police officer punching her and grabbing her hair after she was arrested for shoplifting - the officer was suspended and faced no criminal charges. 

Mark Duggan (Black), 29, in 2011 Mark Duggan was shot by police in Tottenham, London, the police chased him in a minicab claiming he had a gun - a gun was later found 7 metres away from the minicab. Protests and riots in London and other areas of England ensued. The police were cleared of any wrongdoing. 

Sheku Bayoh (Black), 31, was murdered by police in 2015 in Fife, Scotland. Very similar to George Floyd, Bayoh was knelt on by police for 9 minutes. Much like George Floyd, Sheku Bayoh’s last words were also ‘I can’t breath’. The police were not charged. 

Christopher Alder (Black), 37, was a computer programmer for the British army. He was arrested in 1998 after he was punched at a nightclub and was supposedly ‘aggressive’ at a hospital. He was found  ‘face down on a custody suite floor, with his trousers round his ankles and his hands cuffed behind his back, while police officers made monkey imitations and references to banana boots and a hood with slits.’ The officers were cleared of any wrong doing. 

Smiley Culture (Black), 48, Culture stabbed himself in the heart (hmm) when police raided his home in London. His death was a contributing factor in the 2011 riots.  

Jimmy Mubenga (Black), 46, Mubenga was being deported - three private security guards held him down on the plane and restricted his breathing, despite already being handcuffed to the seat. His last words were also ‘I can’t breath’. Th officers were cleared of manslaughter. 

Michael Powell (Black), 38, Powell had many mental health difficulties and dealt with it by taking drugs. In 2013, his mother called the police on him after he started smashing car windows this a hammer, she was afraid and just wanted him restrained. Several police officers came and subdued him using pepper spray. He died in the back of the police van. All officers were cleared but it’s okay because over 10 years later, police have apologised for the pain and suffering he was in. 

Leon Briggs (Black), 39, Briggs died in custody in 2013 after being held under Mental Health Act but no medical intervention was sought, he became unconscious and died. Police officers were cleared of any wrong doing. They were suspended with full pay.

Ricky Bishop (Black), 25, police in Brixton, London, in 2001 claimed Bishop was attempting to escape so held him down, he had a heart attack. He was still in cuffs when he arrived at the hospital. All officers were cleared. 

Brian Douglas (Black), in 2005 PC Tuffey hit Douglas over the head with a police baton. Douglas was arrested and despite vomiting in his cell, he wasn’t taken to the hospital until 14 hours later,  he suffered a fractured skull and damage to his brain stem. No disciplinary action was taken against the police. 

Joy Gardner, (Jamaican), 40, “They say she was ‘illegal’, but she wasn’t illegal. She came here legally, she paid her fare, but she overstayed her time.“Then they broke into her flat, put 13 feet of tape around her head and a belt on her legs, and they suffocated her.” The police were cleared.

Roger Sylvester (Black), 30, Sylvester suffered from mental health illnesses. He was arrested in  1999 and held down by six officers. He fell in to a coma and never regained consciousness. The police were cleared of any wronging.

Azelle Rodney (Black),16, was shot by police 6 times in 2013. The officer said he suspected Rodney was hiding a machine gun. No machine guns were found on his person. The officer in question was arrested and sent to trial but the jury found him not guilty. 

Habib Ullah (South Asian), 39, ‘During one hearing Emma Forbes, who was present at the time, said officers had held Mr Ullah face down on the ground at one point, and said they had “their hands around his throat, pressing down and putting their hands in his mouth at the same time”.’

Faruk Ali (South Asian), in Luton 2014, two police officers laughed as they chased after Ali, (who is autistic and has the mental age of 5) in their car and the proceeded to beat him. Thankfully, Mr Ali is alive and well. This incident lead to protests and a demand for justice for people with mental health issues. The police officers were sacked but no charges were made against them. 

Adrian Thompson (Black), 34, Thomson was tasered by police after he was accused of breaking into flats when in fact he went to a friend’s birthday party. He died in the back of the police van. 

Jean Charles de Menezes (Brazillian), 27, was shot by police after they suspected him of being a terrorist a day after the London 7/7 bombings in 2005 (he was not, it was mistaken identity but police shot first). No officers were charged, his parents took the case of the ECJ but they lost the fight. 

Demetre Fraser (Black), 21, Fraser died after falling 11ft from a tower block in Birgmingham in 2014 after being chased by police. Police were not at fault according to met. 

Aston McLean (Black), 27, McLean was being chased by police in 2014 when he was hit by an armed response vehicle. McLean was pepper sprayed before he was hit. officers cleared. 

Olaseni Lewis (Black), 23, Lewis died after being restrained by 11 police officers. Officers were not charged but a law called ‘Seni’s law’ came into effect in 2018 ‘ Under the new legislation, hospitals will be required to publish data on how and when physical force is used.’

Anthony Grainger (Black), 36, was shot through the chest as he sat in a car in the village of Culcheth, Cheshire, by an armed police officer known as “Q9” in March 2012. Police were cleared.

David “Rocky” Benett (Black), Benett suffered with mental health illnesses. He was restrained for 25 minutes by up to five NHS staff members.  He had punched a female member of staff after being moved to a different ward to separate him from another patient he had hit, but who later attacked Mr Bennett and racially abused him.“Rocky died a brutal death,” Dr Bennett said. “He was pinned face down on the ground by the very people who we trusted to care for him.  “It breaks my heart every time I think about that night and it will live with me and my family forever.”

Alton Manning (Black), 33, “Manning, a prisoner on remand, and was killed on 8th December 1995 after being assaulted by prison officers at the private prison HMP Blakenhurst. An Inquest, which originally opened on Monday 12th January 1998 and concluded on 25th March 1998, unanimously decided that Alton Manning was unlawfully killed.” The officers were cleared. 

Mark Nune (Black), 35, police acted as judge, jury and executioner after shooting Nune during a robbery.   

- it’s not mentioned here so I’m not going to go into it right now by please search up Stephen Lawrence, it is an extremely important case and if there’s one thing you can do for his memory is learn about him and remember his name.

How 1776 characters would react to an iPhone:

Adams: would think it’s a waste of space and tries to destroy it

Franklin: tries to learn how to use it but ends up ruining it by accidentally dropping it in the toilet and pooping on it

Jefferson: his hands are too big to try and use it

Dickinson: literally doesn’t give a shit

Hancock: genuinely loves the idea of it and learns how to use one very quickly

Rutledge: burns it

Wilson: uses Snapchat filters constantly

Hopkins: keeps pouring run over it

Thomson: takes photos of Hancock sleeping

Hall: teaches everyone how to use it after learning to use it himself

McKean: gets extremely mad when he can’t figure it out due to his sausage fingers and ends up shooting it with his musket

Rodney: too old

Read: is addicted and can’t get off of it, not even to use the bathroom

Sherman: only uses it to take photos of trees

Morris: you already know what I’d say

Chase: gets it confused with a hotdog and accidentally eats the phone

Lee: gets super excited about it and takes selfies with everyone

Bartlett: is that one strict teacher that doesn’t allow phones

Hewes: doesn’t know how to use it even after being explained how 100 times

Livingston: calls up eyebrow places so his eyebrow game doesn’t go bad

Witherspoon: thinks it’s a sin and prays for its demise
