Join the exclusive author event hosted by David Sterling Brown as he presents his groundbreaking new book, "Shakespeare's White Others". This captivating work delves into the complex portrayal of racially white 'others' in Shakespeare's iconic characters such as Richard III, Hamlet, and Tamora. With meticulous research and personal insights, Brown uncovers how these characters challenge the notion of whiteness, perpetuating anti-Blackness and reinforcing white supremacy.

Drawing from his own life experiences and a deep understanding of Shakespeare's plays, Brown skillfully exposes the illusion of white racial solidarity. He reveals Shakespeare's pivotal role in shaping identity politics during the Elizabethan era, shedding light on the racialized category of the 'white other'. This essential contribution to Shakespeare studies, critical whiteness studies, and critical race studies dismantles dramatized racial profiling, offering a fresh perspective on early modern English culture.

Renowned scholars and experts have praised Brown's work for its profound impact. Patricia Akhimie, Director of the Folger Institute, describes it as a much-needed study that uncovers the policing of whiteness within Shakespeare's plays. Emma Smith, Professor of Shakespeare Studies at the University of Oxford, hails the book as a timely intervention that advances the field by examining the figure of the white other. Keith Hamilton Cobb, actor and playwright, commends Brown's scholarship for its indomitable voice rooted in Black humanity.

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

There is a statue of Henry VIII at the entrance to Trinity College. There is an apple tree on the green lawn at the entrance of the College, which is the source of Newton&#39;s law of gravity. When you enter the courtyard of the College, the magnificent building brings a sense of awe. The front hall of the church is filled with jade statues of famous graduates from Trinity College, including Newton, Bacon, Tennyson and others.

The clock was a little unclear at night. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, the psychology is still a little inexplicable nervous. After all, time, no one can control.
