“ The self-abnegation that has become the hallmark of liberal White culture strikes me as pure fashion for most younger people and the insincere but terrified reaction from those in power smacks of desperation and fear. But it is doing its damage and I don't think anything productive is being gained from the warping of something as innocuous and ultimately transitorily diverting as an Encores! staged reading of a forgotten musical. Trying to make it into something profound and capable of changing history is a ludicrous display of self-aggrandisement and delusions of grandeur.”
I don’t think I’ve ever seen this argument so well-said, as it applies to art in general and Encores in particular. You (or someone you know) should post it as a response on the Times website. |
