The Activity Column Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, don’t throw away your shot to learn about Hamilton! When “Hamilton” came out in 2015, my daughter played the cast recording endlessly. It wasn’t long before our entire family was snapping fingers, and Hamilton-related books dominated our Christmas lists that year. “Hamilton,” written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, based on Ron Chernow’s biography, made history cool and sparked an uptick in book sales about America’s founding fathers. While experts agree that the framework of the play is based on facts, the truth, as the show says, depends on “who tells your story.” For starters, Hamilton’s mother, Rachel Faucette Buck, was not actually a prostitute. Her first husband made that accusation in a divorce filing, and the slur made its way into the first line of the hit musical. Because the play sparked renewed interest in Hamilton himself, and in the other figures in his story, from Maria Reynolds to Hercules Mulligan to Angelica Schuyler. The “ten dollar founding father,” made many of us want to learn more, whether about the complexities of colonial divorce law, or the banking system of the United States, or representative democracy, or effective persuasion. Explore the history of medicine and ponder what might have saved Hamilton, or his son Philip. Consider the dangers of 18th century transportation and the shipwreck that killed Theodosia Burr Alston. Ponder Hamilton’s stance on slavery — historians agree that Hamilton spoke out against it, and he was a member of the Manumission Society, but his wife Eliza came from a slave-holding family, and enslaved servants probably kept the Hamilton house running. “Hamilton” reminds us that knowledge, presented in an engaging manner, makes us want to know more. Dr. Robert P. Watson will discuss Hamilton’s life, and the role he played in shaping New Jersey, in a lecture titled “Alexander Hamilton: The Man, the Myth, the Musical.” Dr. Watson is an “award-winning author, professor, historian, and analyst who has contributed to The New York Times, NPR, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the BBC, and more.” He has written 40 books on history and politics, and has served as an “on-camera expert for numerous historical documentaries” for shows produced in the United States and around the world. Dr. Watson is a professor of American history at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida. The lecture, part of Cape May MAC’s Lessons of History series, is Sunday, October 8 from 5 to 7 pm at Cape May Convention Hall. Tickets are $40 per person. Visit capemaymac.org for tickets and more information. Students (and teachers!) are admitted free with student ID. September 21, 2023 EXIT ZERO Page 43
