DSW Episode 6: Epic Lit! Old Ass Plays! Replace Gilgamesh & Shakespeare with Murasaki Shikibu, Emily Wilson & Mary Zimmerman
Women write amazing shit today and they wrote amazing shit a long time ago and kids are missing out on these masterworks of literature and drama simply because misogyny and racism are the cornerstones of every public school English curriculum. Let Willz sit on the 'Choice Books' shelf for once so students can explore and love these women's words and perspectives instead:
Murasaki Shikibu * Diary of Lady Murasaki Shikibu * The Tale of Genji
Mary Zimmerman * Metamorphosis
Emily Wilson * The Odyssey (Translation)
