Although sure, those characters are still based off of white historical figures, the musical is able to do some unique things by telling their story with non white actors/historically non white music:

conflate the revolutionary politics of people of color today with the revolutionary politics of the founding fathers

conflate rap and hip hop with the revolutionary war, the declaration of independence, the national anthem... symbols of America that rarely include a black narrative, despite black people totally being part of our countries history, and not just as slaves.

So I think that although a hit musical about historical people of color would rock, it's not like this one is just paying lip service to white people and saying or doing nothing else.

I haven't followed it that closely, but it seems like an interesting way of reclaiming American history by finding the threads that are inspirational and identifiable to people today.

American is on the verge of being a non-white-majority country, but our official identity is based on the work of a bunch of white dudes hundreds of years ago. Instead of discarding that as being irrelevant, why not recast it as something relevant?
