So when The Greatest Showman came out and people spoke about how it made PT Barnum a good character although he was horrible in real life, people defended it by saying that it was a piece of fiction based on real historical characters, everyone shut up.
But when Hamilton, a musical with a diverse cast that was written by a puertorrican man, does basically the same thing, it glorifies slave owners and is therefore racist?
Hamilton is not only groundbreaking for its music but its diverse cast and creating a safe space in theater. People made the mistake to take this musical as an accurate representation of the founding fathers when it wasn’t.
Y’all just don’t like to see someone who isn’t white succeed, admit it.

“I was helping this kid that I was mentoring and he put himself on tape for this amazing part on your show, which I was already watching. I was initially curious because the script contained one of the most important spoilers for most of us. Some of us kept punishing ourselves by watching your show to see if something terrible would happen to Joffrey. But I had that satisfaction ripped away from me when I was helping this kid tape and reading for Oberyn. As i kept reading, it’s embarrassing to admit, but i connected to it so completely that it lit this crazy fire in me. I felt instantly attached to the character so i was totally focussed on my representatives getting me the material and taping an audition.”
