[quote=Anonymous]The troll poster that wants to cancel Shakespeare is just an inarticulate version of a much more pernicious current. The ‘sophisticated’ scholars where these ideas originate are in the humanities departments at prestigious universities. This is the current analysis on Shakespeare that draws that inspiration and there are countless ‘works’ in this vein: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41280-020-00169-6 In a nutshell, Shakespeare is harmful to black kids because whiteness. The reason ‘middle aged’ (I know, the horror!) people still appreciate Shakespeare with all the good reasons presented in this thread is that they weren’t exposed to the critical studies ideas that dominate universities today. The woke cancel culture mob representatives are just parroting the line presented to them in college in the past 5-10 years.[/quote]
