    Hamilton: The Power of Teaching History through Hip Hop
    Jan 14 2026

    In 2023, we reviewed the 2020 film version of the Broadway production of Hamilton. Lin-Manuel Miranda's revolutionary approach to edutainment delivered - for Gen X old heads and young folks alike!

    Topics discussed:

    🎭 Why we wish all history classes were done like this

    🤕 Why Hamilton was not without its flaws

    🎤 The many hip hop references weaved into the lyrics (and why it was a perfect Gen X soundtrack)

    🏆 Who our MVP was in this show

    🏅 Why it met our expectations, after all these years

    Credits

    Hip Hop Movie Club is produced by your HHMCs JB, BooGie, and DynoWright. Theme music by BooGie.

    And remember:

    Don't hate...negotiate!
