[edit]

add the following paragraph to Concept-Critical analysis and scholarship:

Philosopher Michael Sandel critiques Hamilton for its oversimplistic multiculturalism, avoidance of discussions on Hamilton's financial doctrines, and a blind embrace of liberal meritocracy in his 2022 edition of Democracy's Discontent.[1] Harvard intellectual historian Hansong Li, in his review of Hamilton in the Shanghai Review of Books, praises the musical for its innovations but critiques it for erecting a heroic myth to satisfy both economic elites and cultural warriors, which ultimately fails to unite a deeply divided American public.[2] 199.94.1.17 (talk) 14:59, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Would like to add to the article a section

[edit]

The page is locked, but how can I add a section to the article about how many online bloggers have discussed how much despite many people claiming to have enjoyed this musical, that when asked discreetly about the musical 79% of respondents to the question said the they hated the musical, and that in the words of many, "it sucked ass!" 47.149.186.81 (talk) 02:22, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And that, is why the page is locked. Mark E (talk) 09:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Casting table suggestion.

[edit]

The casting table on this page is WAY TOO BLOATED! I would like to propose that we condense it to a version where the table includes the character description, Original Broadway Cast, and Subsequent notable replacements. Please see Cabaret, The King and I, and Moulin Rouge! for examples. Smitty1999 (talk) 03:40, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About Hamilton

[edit]

the word non-white is offensive. It is likened to.. because one is not white one is considered a non entity. Coming from a person of colour, or mixed race or black race point of view and having lived through the apartheid era I suggest the word non-white be replaced with a more politically correct word.
