Same classic story, different language

Are we really funding Shakespeare performances in Spanish? What about the American kids that don't understand Spanish? I guess they don't deserve to have Shakespeare performances. Come on people, why are we doing this to our American kids? Between mayor Villianogsa and Tamar Galatzan, we'll be lucky to have anything in ENGLISH. Do they offer any performances in ENGLISH, or is this just another way to exclude American kids from our LAUSD programs.

I recently filled out a parent contact card for the LAUSD.... Guess what, Caucasian isn't even a check box on the form. WHITE people are considered OTHER in the list of possible ethnic categories. You heard me right, they don't have a category for WHITE people any more. There are several Hispanic categories and LOTS of others too, but none for white kids. Here's what they have done to our public school system, white kids just don't count any more.

Shakespeare in Spanish? Perhaps something gets lost in the translation. To be fair, shouldn't we also have the plays of Frederico Garcia Lorca produced in English?
