A playwright says he only wants blacks involved in a production, and “racism” is claimed when the play is not produced?
Paging George Orwell!
I used to err on the side of being PC toward minorities,
but since last year I see that all of our efforts in America,
all our deference and protection and special laws and set-asides,
have not changed minorities’ hatred for whites one iota.
Screw it. If you hate me because of my skin color, I’m going to treat you for what you are - a racist.
If these minorities really want to see what racism can look like (they’ve forgotten its truly horrible face), we can start by not financially supporting any enterprise dominated by minorities.
That financial hurt may serve to remind them that things are pretty damn good in this country. In fact, the only group being discriminated against and vilified is the white, Christian, conservative male.
And, of course, we white, Christian, conservative males would never boycott an enterprise because of it is run by minorities, because we are not racists.
I wouldn’t produce/direct this writer’s plays simply because , based upon his quotes, he sucks as a thinker and a writer. He hasn’t broken free of the mold that leftists made for him.
Interesting—Wilson’s dad was a German immigrant—in fact Wilson’s real name was Frederick August Kittel, Jr.
an increasing number of white directors have staged his plays
Makes as much sense as Gene Wilder producing "Springtime For Hitler".
