Shall I compare thee to a dystopian Orwellian nightmare?
William Shakespeare's birthplace will be de-colonised over fears that portraying his success as the 'greatest' playwright 'benefits the ideology of white European supremacy'.
If you acknowledge Shakespeare as the greatest playwright of all time, then you are perpetuating ... white supremacy?
In 2022, a research project between the trust and Dr Helen Hopkins at the University of Birmingham postulated that the idea of Shakespeare's 'universal' genius 'benefits the ideology of white European supremacy'.
This is because European culture is portrayed as the standard for high art and the playwright as a symbol of British 'superiority', according to The Telegraph.
The project said this narrative has caused harm, and advised that the trust stop saying Shakespeare was the 'greatest' but part of a community of 'equal and different' writers globally.
I mean, never mind that Shakespeare IS the legit GOAT (Greatest Of All Time), the historic site which is his home is preparing to downplay Shakespeare's importance and no doubt highlight OTHER playwrights from other parts of the world.
It wants to 'create a more inclusive museum experience' and announced it will move away from Western perspectives after concerns were raised that Shakespeare's ideas were used to advance 'white supremacy' ideas.
Again, this is a museum of William Shakespeare, the most important literary figure in the English-speaking world, maybe in the entire world, but we need to use his museum and his legacy to hate on white people.
Just so you know how badly woke Marxism has infected old England:
In 2021, The Globe Theatre launched a project to 'decolonise' Shakespeare's famous plays, while experts claimed his work is 'problematic' for linking whiteness to beauty.
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'.
If you don't know what's happening here, the commies want to destroy the soul of England.
Let Dame Judy Dench demonstrate the power that Shakespeare still stirs in that soul:
