Hamilton exists so old white people can pat themselves on the back and tell their adult children that they've listened to rap music.

My adult(ish) child tried mightily to convince me to like it. I thought it was boring, listened to The 36 Chambers instead.louism2wash said:Hamilton exists so old white people can pat themselves on the back and tell their adult children that they've listened to rap music.

Sí, right next to JLO, Ricky Martin, and Roberto Clemente on the Puerto Rican Mount Rushmore, or as we like to call it, Wepa La Montaña de FamososPurpleBaze said: -
Shitty School House Rock white guilt bullshit. Ready to Die was my favorite album 20 years before these people started trying to guilt me into pretending to like Hamilton or I was racist or some shit.louism2wash said:Hamilton exists so old white people can pat themselves on the back and tell their adult children that they've listened to rap music.

Kids don't know shit. I was listening when Run DMC and Aerosmith invented rap music.louism2wash said:Hamilton exists so old white people can pat themselves on the back and tell their adult children that they've listened to rap music.

As a proud holder of a B of A in History from a Public Ivy (hi @creepycoug !!) I would never go to see Hamilton.
Me and other scholars like @pawz like to get our history from thick 800 to 1000 page Chernow authored bios.
Learning history from hip hop Broadway? GTFOH! -

Given the historical level of gayness here, kind of surprised at the hating on Broadway.

Yeah there was meant to be some obvious irony in that comment. I do think that was a big deal as far as bringing it to the masses though.RaceBannon said:

I also hold history credentials from the same fine institution, and while the musical butchers most facts about Hamilton’s life, I take the opposite stance.YellowSnow said:As a proud holder of a B of A in History from a Public Ivy (hi @creepycoug !!) I would never go to see Hamilton.

I happily saw the musical, which I enjoyed, and was thrilled it’s served as a “gateway drug” for many young people and got them interested in the subject again.
Sadly in this era of misinformation and overemphasis on STEM, fields vital to our society like history, civics, and philosophy need the FREE PUB!
