#BoycottHamilton IsTrending After Cast Calls Out Vice President-Elect Mike Pence
Cast members of the hit Broadway show ‘Hamilton’ called out the soon to be vice president during curtain call.
#BoycottHamilton is trending on Twitter after cast members of the Broadway mu- sical called out vice-president elect Mike Pence at a show on Friday night.
In case you missed it, Pence finally got his chance to see the Broadway musical that has been sold out for months going into next year. The timing couldn’t have been more per- fect for him to be in room full of people that his viewpoints and policies as governor of In- diana could directly effect once he presumably bring them with him into the White House.
Sensing the fear and disgust of Americans all over the country, the cast chose to con- front and challenge Pence to represent for all Americans, not just the ones in his “Whitest selfie ever.”
As usual in America, a group
of people were offended by a group of minorities using their entertainment platform to draw attention to societal ills that directly offend them. Re- member when #BoycottNFL came after players started tak- ing a knee during the national anthem? Now we have #Boy cottHamiltion.
The funny thing here is that as crazy as #BoycottNFL sounded, it could actually be done by not buying tickets to the games, not watching the games on television or not buying merchandise. But #BoycottHamilton? As many have pointed out, most, if not all of the people spreading the hashtag either can’t afford tickets to go or can’t go in the first place.
And those attending, who booed Pence were WHITE people.
