Don't get me wrong. The decision for some of those Dr Seuss books to be pulled from publication was absolutely the correct one. But now I'm nervous that it might soon be the correct decision for Shakespeare as well and that I might be a bad person for hoping that it doesn't happen.

Othello was originally about an Arab, not a Black man. It doesn't change the fact that he was played by an actor in makeup. (Shakespeare himself played the part at one point.) And Caliban is an insensitive portrayal of a Caribbean islander.
He could very well be canceled. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It is easier to cancel stuff that is still protected by copyright laws.
