Hamilton Pt. 2

The HushAndDo Podcast - A podcast by Jay T. Hairston II

Special shout out to Chadwick Boseman, who left us the day after we recorded this episode. His work in Black Panther serves as the backdrop for our discussion about Hamilton today.Today, my wife, Christine M. Hairston is our special guest. We are discussing the cultural significance and impact of the musical, "Hamilton". Her journey through higher education bares some striking resemblances to the plight of Alexander Hamilton. Not only that, seeing a cast of color serves as a beacon of hope that raises the culture and psyche of being a person of color. Finally, even if just fantasy, we get to see ourselves more prominently included in America's narrative, beyond merely just slavery, but to being key figures who were "In the room where It happened."
