Applaud Tucson’s Unified School District! Now, Confiscate Shakespeare’s Plays!

Children and young adults in the U.S. do not need an introduction into the scheming and conniving ways of someone like Iago. What is it that our children and young people are to learn from reading the words of a liar who hates his superior – a Moor! – so much that he plots to have Othello kill Desdemona, Othello�s white wife. Too sordid for American children!

American children and young adults do not need to read of wars and enemies, land confiscations, brutal slaughters at home and abroad, imprisonment in dungeons, and executions, usually beheadings. Little Mexican, Black, Indigenous, and Asian students, in particular, do not need to know that their classmates of European descend had ancestors who were power-hungry and arrogant, narrow-mind and �tribal,� and who killed at the blink of an eye – and killed by the hundreds!
