The Globe Theatre in London is going through all of Shakespeare's plays to purge out the "whiteness"
The London theatre, which is a reconstruction of the Elizabethan playhouse where William Shakespeare wrote his work, has begun 'anti-racist' seminars to discuss 'decolonising' Shakespeare's esteemed plays.

Experts claimed that the bard's plays are 'problematic' for linking whiteness to beauty, while an academic said all of Shakespeare's plays are 'race plays' as they all contain 'whiteness'.

'discussing decolonising Shakespeare's esteemed plays' is not 'purging out whiteness'

Msm shit-stirring as usual.

"Professor Farah Karim-Cooper, co-director of education at Shakespeare's Globe, said: 'It is really reductive to suggest we are 'assaulting' or 'canceling' Shakespeare.

'We are holding conversations about race and diversity. If you knew your Shakespeare, you'd understand that Shakespeare is robust, enduring and that he can handle this. 

He's not going anywhere. We love him too and no we are not saying he was a racist!"

Are you nuts?

They say EXPLICITLY that they are going about ridding Shakespeare's works of "whiteness" and anything else their "discussions" conclude is problematic.

In the US "scholars" and librarians are already canceling Shakespeare for his "outdated ideas, misogyny, racism, homophobia, classism, and anti-Semitism."

What a load of shit.

What right do they have to change one word Shakespeare wrote?

What is the purpose?

Fuck is wrong with you?

Nobody cares that Shakespeare is on the chopping block?
