[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the original poster for this thread and I happened upon this in today’s Times Book Review and thought I would share. It might be of interest to some of you who classify Shakespeare as just another dead white guy that Denzel Washington is about to star in his portrayal of MacBeth, and Amanda Gorman counts Shakespeare as one of her favorite poets. Does this soften your opinion? She says she could read Othello every day and keeps it on her nightstand. [b]So I ask again why aren’t all of our DC students not learning these same works along with other great works of world literature?
