After much research, Mr. Edgar decided to see the play itself (about Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton) in Chicago. &#8220;I was completely blown away by the music, engaging characters and, most importantly, the story. Alexander Hamilton lived ten times more of a life than anyone else in U.S. History. The man had his faults (and untimely death), but he influenced American History, Politics and Government forever. It&#8217;s America then, told by America now, with nearly all cast members being minorities from various backgrounds.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:15px;margin-bottom:15px;width:100%;\"><\/div><div ><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat button-xlarge button-default fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/f\/banaadir-academy-goes-to-hamilton\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">Help Students Go See Hamilton<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14795,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14794","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-banaadir-elementary"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Banaadir Academy goes to Hamilton!
