    In Hamilton, the protagonist uses slavery as a talking point exactly once to call someone else a hippocrite and win a rap battle

    I will never understand Lin Manuel Miranda's decision to cut Cabinet Battle #3 , which would've been the only track in the entire show to actually focus upon slavery, in favor of the first two which are essentially just joke songs. Cabinet Battle #3 would've really highlighted how hypocritical/shitty all of the founding fathers were, though, so I'm sure after he was invited to the WH in 2014 to promote Hamilton he axed it.
