      She describes a whole tearful confrontation once she got on set with the brown hair Where as both a history buff and an actor she felt it was incredibly insulting that they thought Anne's real hair color, a huge part of her real-life image, was "wrong" for the part

      It does seem like this is mostly Henry and the rest being assholes, though, rather than something racialized?

      "Race" as we know it was still in the process of being invented back then but there absolutely was prejudice against darker complexioned people in favor of fairer complexion being a sign of virtue, which you can see in Shakespeare's plays etc.

      Race in Shakespeare is complicated, though. His portrayals of racialized figures are meant to be read *sympathetically* compared to other work from the time, which doesn’t mean it’s not problematic. Just that it’s not purely “racist” in an historical lens.

      Yeah even Othello is a bad person, he's tragically trapped in what Shakespeare thinks of as his inescapable biological condition, his Moorish hot blood

      And Aaron the Moor, by contrast, is not just a villain but this *ultimate* villain Like Don John in Much Ado, he gives a whole eloquent monologue about how even though he seemingly has every reason to be happy and content he's gonna blow it up because it's his nature to do so

      Right, and in Don John's case his villainy is also "in the blood" in the sense that he's a bastard

          Most modern stagings will try to make this nurture, not nature Othello, Aaron and Don John are all vindictive and resentful all the time because they grew up in a world where for all their privilege they were always "other" and didn't belong

          But Shakespeare clearly didn't really see it this way Or at least he didn't draw the distinction between nature and nurture, it was all one
