[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's probably fine if they no longer teach Shakespeare. People have valid feelings around not wanting to glorify colonial oppression and i don't see the relevance to my personal life.[/quote] You can argue relevance to personal life to anything that is being taught in school: algebra, chemistry, history, writing, geography. We still need to educate our children and teenagers broadly, even if they will not use the entire high school curriculum on their future career. I did not understand how teaching Shakespeare is connected to the desire to glorify colonial opression, that was a non sequitur for me.[/quote]
