I have wondered whether or not anyone would ever go after Lin Manuela-Miranda for Cultural Appropriation, in light of his using only minority actors to represent the White Founding Fathers. And then, when advertising for replacement actors in the NYT, specifying that only minorities would be considered. BREATHTAKING DOUBLE STANDARD??

I’m SURE the movie is about a black man teaching lessons to a white man about how to be better.

Even if that white man is a ... captive audience, we’ll say.

The reality is that most of these home health aides ARE black, usually islanders who do a lot of stealing and abusing. I’ve interacted with this sort of thing too many times throughout my life.
