You're going to have an awful lot of dumb kids. Fahrenheit 451 is not as necessary as the Bard is.

the point is the irony of burning books

I didn't see anything in the article about book burning.

I read Shakespeare, Chaucer, DH Lawrence, Laurence Durrell, Sartre, Chekov, Ibsen, Thomas Mann, E. M. Forster’ and many other books in HS.
 
I'd agree with this:

Some argued in the journal that it was not a question of 'either/or', and that there was space to study Shakespeare alongside other authors dealing with diverse themes.
Ayanna Thompson, professor of English at Arizona State University and president of the Shakespeare Association of America, recommended Toni Morrison, August Wilson, W.E.B. Du Bois and James Baldwin, among others.
'There are rich global perspectives from which Shakespeare can be approached, taught, and analyzed,' she said.


There's plenty of time to teach both. YES there were bigoted characters in Shakespeare's works, just as there still are. He portrayed people as they were and are. The major themes in his plays are as pertinent today as they were then.

Of course students will enjoy Cisneros; that's good reading, too.

It's not the end of the world if a student knows nothing about Shakespeare, but it would be sad if he were removed from the canon entirely.
 
old shakes has been tampered with many times. if you had a copy written in old english, you could not read it...the language has changed tremendously sine shakes times
 
The Orwellian Totalitarian Left Wingers cannot tolerate the great literature of Shakespeare because of the author's race.
While they are at it they should also burn Fahrenheit 451 just to show the exponential irony.
It's just more evidence that the Left is a dangerous cult.
Liberals are incapable of shame.

Anti-white racism is the foundation of the Nazi democrat party.

Whites are the new Juden, the scapegoat the Reich focuses all hatred on.

You're not American, so what you learned in HS isn't really relevant.

Book burning isn't just a matter of physically lighter pages ablaze, if refers to the suppression of works by the Reich or the state - in this case the government socialized schools. To further the racist agenda of scapegoating whites, literature is censored and banned. Knowledge that the Reich wishes to deny to students.

Such a move has long been a-coming,

Some schools have previously demanded ousting the Bard and replacing him with the absolutely brilliant novels by certain politically correct non-Caucasian authors.

Maybe here in America intelligent students of ALL ethnicities will be meeting in secret to read & discuss the Bard and other forbidden Caucasian authors. (Maybe Mark Twain?)

Gosh! We're becoming like Nazi Germany and today's China & Russia.

Clemens was attacked long ago by the Ministry of Correct Thought.
 
The Orwellian Totalitarian left wingers are after music as well. Beethoven id out Beethoven ‘cancelled’? Why people are debating whether the Fifth Symphony is elitist
in Paris Swan Lake and the Nutcracker will no longer be on stage. Paris Opera to bend The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and the The Yankee Princess for promoting 'White supremacy'

Even Elvis is now a racist. HOW DID ELVIS GET TURNED INTO A RACIST?

The best way to combat the garbage the left comes up with is not to fall in their trap. Laugh at them.

Memes work good also to show how stupid they are.
