At the very pinnacle of Aryan genius and achievement is William Shakespeare. And ever since the Dead White Male craze of the 1980s our enemies have been attempting to eradicate the White heroic image and this greatness from its pinnacle. So it’s no surprise that Shakespeare has always been in their crosshairs. In 2007 feminist author Germaine Greer wrote a biography of Anne Hathaway in which she pilloried the Bard as an emblem of the patriarchy. A recent book from the academy on The First Folio states of this collection of the great man’s plays: they originally served as symbols of the supposed virtues of English and Western civilizing projects, but they have more recently become sites of resistance through post-colonial scholarship. So it’s no surprise that the supposed guardians of Shakespeare’s legacy are attempting tar and feather him; to cast him as the epitome of Whiteness which, of course, must be cast down.
“The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, which manages William Shakespeare’s birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon, has announced that it will decolonize future celebrations of the great playwright over concerns that his works could be used to promote white supremacy (March 18 2025).”
To decolonize of course is their term of art to eliminate Whiteness, and particularly superior and excellent forms of Whiteness in the cultural sphere. It is well known to our enemies that from the Greeks, to the Romans, to the Northern Europeans the White race has a cultural patrimony which is unparalleled and unassailable. It is this which galls them and it is this which engenders their bitter resentment. And Shakespeare, who is hailed as a world genius, who created the English language, is the absolute symbol of this mastery.
“Three years ago, a research project conducted by the trust and Dr. Helen Hopkins at the University of Birmingham suggested that the writer’s works benefits the ideology of white European supremacy, the Trust — which owns several buildings in Shakespeare’s hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon, England and a collection of personal documents of the writer’s — wants to create a more inclusive museum experience by promising to remove offensive language from its collections.”
Remember, these are the people who have been appointed to be the stewards and caretakers of our race’s memory. And so it is a perfect example of how our enemies have become ensconced in the commanding heights of our culture. This Trust is supposed to foster and augment and celebrate our history and our culture. Instead the infiltrators have turned traitors and are wielding our past against us.
Shakespeare of course is one of the immortals, he abides and he is free, as the Poet said. But his memory is now a contested site and the paladins of destruction are now set to eat him out of house and home in the very heart of Stratford. They will fail of course, they will fail because Shakespeare’s greatness and his peerless use of language and his deathless dramas are so majestic that no enemy can possibly control it or contain it. For as he said: the truth will out.
