I have to admit that I only knew that Hamilton was a slave owner and that he is played by a black guy. I didn't even know he raps.

hamilton is not played by a black guy! i was referring to Thomas Jefferson played by the (honestly very talented ) davved diggs. theres a scene where he comes in and the slaves are cleaning the floors then they start dancing with him, https://youtu.be/hruG4iDSQAI?si=a4WUZf7zXwQFRq_7. and he even says "be a lamb sally", sally his 14 year old victim. hamilton also raps, hamilton is played by a puerto rican man.
