It is an awesome movie and there should’ve been backlash. Don’t stop watching the film but also bring to light it’s flaws with the casting. Yep two things can be true at the same time.

Lin Manuel is a singular talent and a just a downright pure soul. Everything he does you know comes from the heart. He has absolutely gone out of his way to promote inclusivity in all of his projects. Is colorism real? Yes. Did In the Heights include afro latinos of all colors? Yes. It's representation might not be perfect but what is? It's still a step forward in the right direction. This movie did not deserve to be called out in this way when it is the one time latinos finally had to come together and celebrate each other.

I love the quote his writer said and it's the heart of why it seems like everyone is going at LMM a bit more than when it happens in other instances. So many people adore and respect him that they feel that if they bring their concerns about his work to him, he'll actually acknowledge the criticism and try to work on making the best product in the future. Not because he is forced to do so, but because we all know he *wants* to do so.

"Your job as an artist is to write what's missing."

I haven't seen "In The Heights" yet. I did see "Hamilton". My niece played a documentary of the making of "Hamilton" the morning we were going to see it. It explained the reason different musical genres were used, which gave me a better understanding of what I was about to see. Washington & the beginning part of Burr was in jazz while the rest of the cast & the ending part of Burr was in hip hop. When I saw the musical, I didn't take note of what ethnicity the cast was, I took note of what they were saying & doing. I was floored by the energy the cast exuded through the whole musical, & I seriously learned some American History I wasn't taught in school. It was by far, THE BEST PERFORMANCE I HAVE EVER SEEN ON BROADWAY. Everyone involved in Hamilton's production should be proud of what they did... MULTI BRAVO, TO ALL!

Lin Manuel is a beautiful man. I appreciate how he receives the pain and critiques of Afro-Latinos without needing to defend himself. He understands their deep want and doesn't need to diminish that in order to stand proud of his work. He says he is listening and promises to do better next time. How different the world would be if everyone responded to someone else's pain in this non defensive and kind way. I was a fan before but now I think he is a hero. Go Lin Manuel Miranda!!

And after her break was over and she returned to the body shop. One of my co- workers Victor Galindez, yes he had the same name as the Great Argentinian light heavyweight champion. Came to my job and straight up told me that Faye was too dark for me to date. He didn't know that Faye was my cousin and he ASSUMED that I was a fellow latino because of my name and looks.
