William Shakespeare was a 'black Jewish woman', a new book has claimed.
The real playwright is identified as the historical figure Emilia Bassano in The Real Shakespeare, by an LSE graduate and feminist historian.
She was a poet with connections to the Tudor court and wrote the Shakespearean canon of plays using the pen-name 'Shakespeare', according to the book.
But her work is said to have been stolen from an uneducated interloper - William Shakespeare - from Stratford-upon-Avon.
The book's author Irene Coslet argues that the idea of a 'white' genius was preferred to Bassano's identity as a black female playwright.

Nice Sandlot quote.
(invented penny butter.)
Well, that certainly makes cents...
😁😁😁😀
True!
Exactly.
The woman was one of Will's love interests, and after her husband abandoned her, she had an affair with Henry, Lord Hunsdon (Liz I's 1st cousin and Lord Chamberlain, as in "The Lord Chamberlain's Men", the theater company). She was from an Italian father, was NOT black, and it sounds like she was a good date. 😁 Pics at Find-a-Grave.
This author’s claim about Bassano is considered incorrect by most researchers.
And why would the society in which Bassano circulated obscure or hide her authorship of Shakespeare’s work?
Possible? Yes. Probable? No.
What about Sir Francis Bacon? He’s a legitimate candidate.
Of course he was. Same with George Washington, Albert Einstein and other standouts in white culture. They were either gay or black depending on which group wants to claim them.
speaking of bs and adding facts (!):Emilia Bassano was dark-complected- by British standards (!), born to Italian/Moroccan Jews. she published a volume of poetry in 1611-one of first women to be published. she was rumored to be the Dark Lady of Shakespeare’s sonnets.
You’re right! And did you know that the Saturn V rocket was designed and built by Blacks in Wakanda but Whitey stole it? How about the Theory Of Relativity? That was developed by Professor L’Shaniqua Williams, a transgender Black woman who lived in Alabama and whose earth-shattering theory was stolen by the patriarchal Whitey Albert Einstein. Then, of course, who can deny the rest of the awesome contributions made by Blacks such as the inventions of radio, TV, the refrigerator, penicillin, the automobile, airplane, nuclear power, residential electricity, the light bulb, aspirin and trains! Unfortunately, the evil, oppressive Whitey illegitimately laid claim to inventing all of those things. . .
...and a Jewess would write the Merchant of Venice?
No, now I’ll go listen to some soul tracks by Van Bee’thoven.

?? check your eyes. i said nothing about her writing Shakespeare’s plays - but i don’t discount that his association with her and others in his immigrant neighborhood helped him write some of Shylock’s most gripping words.
The old Soviet Union made those ridiculous clains about Russians inventing everything.
Misunderstanding. I did not criticize your post that was factual, but I am more than sceptical to Ms Coslet’s thesis.
Of course. She was lesbian too. Trans by the way, except that would make her a man. Oh, no!
The Old Negro Space Program

Summary from elsewhere:
The suppressed history of America’s Black space program, in mockumentary form broadly satirizing Ken Burns and histories of the Negro Baseball Leagues.
From 2004, so people were making fun of “woke” a long time ago. This used to be on YouTube, but seems to have been excised, probably for political incorrectness.
many would say this author goes too far but there is much evidence of a relationship between the 2- whether intellectual or more- shared phrases in particular.

You must be a rascist sexist. /sarcasm 🤣👍
And Churchill too... All historical figures are both gay and black. Why has history lied to us?
