Hamilton Review

It's the songs with video. It's the Original Cast. But what is it not?

Spoiler

The actors are the same.

The songs are the same.

The way the actors sing those songs though, is different.

Aaron Burr's singing especially is not the same as on the track. I can say this by only listening to the track and then watching the movie.

The actors seem to lose their enthusiasm from the track on Spotify.

It is still a great addition to the musical with the video.

Watch it. You will not regret it (It's on Disney+ exclusivly).

Black Lives Matter May Be the Largest Movement in U.S. History (NYTimes)

The recent Black Lives Matter protests peaked on June 6, when half a million people turned out in nearly 550 places across the United States. That was a single day in more than a month of protests that still continue to today.

Spoiler

Four recent polls — including one released this week by Civis Analytics, a data science firm that works with businesses and Democratic campaigns — suggest that about 15 million to 26 million people in the United States have participated in demonstrations over the death of George Floyd and others in recent weeks.

These figures would make the recent protests the largest movement in the country’s history, according to interviews with scholars and crowd-counting experts.

Bezos is so rich he just set a record (CNN)

The economy might be a shambles, but Jeff Bezos' wallet couldn't tell. He's now worth nearly $172 billion, a new record for the world's richest person, according to Bloomberg Billionaire Index.

Spoiler

Bezos this week surpassed his previous wealth record that he reached prior to his divorce from his ex-wife MacKenzie. Last year, the couple divorced after 25 years of marriage. She received 25% of the couple's Amazon (AMZN) stock, which is roughly a 4% stake in the company.

MacKenzie's wealth also hit a record: She's now worth $57 billion, making her the 12th richest person in the world. Her wealth skyrocketed 54% year to date, or an increase of nearly $20 billion, according to Bloomberg's tallies.

Much of Bezos' wealth is tied to Amazon. He owns roughly 57 million shares, or 12% of the company. And its stock has soared 56% year to date.

Amazon has benefited from a huge increase in online shopping during the coronavirus pandemic, as brick-and-mortar stores either closed or faced long lines as lockdowns overtook the US this year.

Bezos' company, which has faced criticism for employee safety and pay, said this week its giving out more than $500 million as a "Thank You bonus" to frontline workers who were with the company throughout the month of June. That move comes after the company eliminated a $2 hourly wage bump and double overtime pay for frontline workers at the end of May.

Amazon didn't immediately respond for a comment regarding Bezos' wealth.
