Apparently some people did some googling and discovered that Hamilton was a slave trader. Ooops!
The twitters

It’s ok, they chose a black guy to play Hamilton.
Didn’t they? I haven’t seen it but I remember an uproar about it.

The uproar wasn’t about the minority lead characters, it was about them refusing to do the show for mike pence

Lin Manuel Miranda plays Hamilton, so use your detective skills to figure out if you’re right or not.

I've thought about a protest carrying some signage regarding this...

He's Puerto Rican. But Jefferson was black. As was Burr.

But some woke people insist that Hamilton was really black because his mother was from the West Indies.
So did a black founding father own black slaves?

The funny thing is that it was working at the port as a kid where slaves were traded that made him an abolitionist later in life. So I’m not sure what they are on about.

And he’s on the $10 bill, the dix. What a conundrum.

They didn’t. The cast is diverse. There are white, black, Hispanic, and I think Phillipa Soo is half Chinese. Lin Manuel Miranda is of Puerto Rican decent and he plays Alexander Hamilton.

Twitter Trash will find anything to complain about. I thought Hamilton was their gold star. Guess not.

And people try to say liberalism isn't a mental disorder.

It’s almost like no one is perfect AND we can’t judge people from over 100 years ago with today’s standards and views!!!! OMG!!!!

Ok. I knew I remembered there being some sort of controversy over a black actor but I didn’t remember exactly which one.

They addressed Pence *after* the performance. God damn, people are stupid.

Plus, his work as a statesman contributed to end the international slave trade

Just think. In 20 years millions of young Americans will think Alexander Hamilton was black
