Respectfully, I find this hottake offensive to colonized peoples. They were able to “critique” colonial violence without Shakespeare.https://twitter.com/DrJeffreyWilson/status/1091126751604994055 …
I never said that they didn’t use Shakespeare. I said that Shakespeare wasn’t the center of their critique and that they didn’t NEED Shakespeare to mount them. How is that racist?

i’m reading an exclusion in your first comment, and that can lead to a position that people under colonialism did not use all the intellectual resources available, esp resources as good as Shakespeare. plus let’s keep in mind how Shakes was used in critical adaptations.

You are misreading because my point is that colonized people were more than intellectually capable to articulate their struggles without Shakespeare. He is a value added he does not legitimize them. It’s more than clear in my original post.
