This is a clear case of “cultural appropriation”. Where is the woke mob?

When all white roles are played by black proles will that be raparations?

Frank: Yes. Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That’s my policy.

Mayor: That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, you moron! You killed 5 actors! Good ones!

No, it is not a parody, at least it is not INTENDED as a parody. The tightly puckered sphincters at PBS take it very seriously.

Shakespeare smeared Richard III for the Tudors so why not PBS?

Incredible. Just when I think our culture has reached the deepest point of depravity, it sinks yet lower.
