University of Nottingham Module Claims Lord of the Rings is 'Anti-African'
A history module at the University of Nottingham titled "Decolonising Tolkien et al" has sparked debate for its critical analysis of J.R.R. Tolkien’s "The Lord of the Rings." Taught by historian Dr. Onyeka Nubia, the course suggests that the trilogy contains elements of "ethnic chauvinism" that demonize people of color. The curriculum also critiques William Shakespeare, arguing that his works promote a "fictional, mono-ethnic English past" by omitting references to Africans living in England during his time. The academic approach has drawn significant public criticism, with detractors questioning the interpretation of these classic literary works within a modern university setting.
As much so I don't like Lord of the Rings, this is just ridiculous.
Im going to guess its the other way round the university put on the course and then went looking for someone to teach it. Im no longer surprised by people not understanding the simplest things about how the real world works.
You get what you allow. Government Cost of living Race peddling in every single thing that exists... We used to deal with nonsense better... Shame them, tell them to stfu and move on.

Dr. Nubia? Do we live in a comic strip or something? Also they can read now?
They are destroying the Shire and they are doing it on purpose

Let them read Othello and it's all good. And if he put a direct comparison on orcs and uruks it is maybe more of a him-problem
