Cheesy and waaaaay overhyped.  The "music" gives me a headache.[/quote]
I feel like we are supposed to publicly celebrate that white historical figures were made into black characters, but it seems disingenuous to change these people in this way. And people would be screaming if this was done the other way. It’s just kind of stupid and overwrought. [/quote]
Which white historical figures are you talking about?[/quote]
Umm Alexander Hamilton for one. [/quote]

I actually can't believe the PP even asked this question.  Seriously??[/quote]I can't believe that someone is using Alexander Hamilton as an example of an historical figure being turned into a black character. I take it we're talking about the musical Hamilton? It's hardly a serious biography of the life of Alexander Hamilton.[/quote]

NP. I’m a “brown” person and also find it annoying when 21st century productions of historical stories/events include nonwhite actors playing characters who were obviously white. It feels like stupid pandering. [/quote]

You would HATE Les Mis in London right now with Inspector Javert and he easily was one of the best performers. **** off with that nonsense. [/quote]

Yes, I would. And if you’re triggered on a thread that’s literally about unpopular opinions, you’re the one that should **** off. [/quote]

I feel fine calling out racist POS whenever I see them when they hide behind "unpopular" opinions. So FU[/quote]
How exactly was anything said “racist”?[/quote]

There is no way a non white actor could portray a character that has been played by 100s of individuals over the years. BTW he did a great job and got the loudest ovation from the crowd. [/quote]
