This is you home, Igwezu, and I would not drive you from it for the entire world. But it might be best for you if you went back to the city until this .....

.... comment on society. Willy does not meet America's twentieth century economic standards of success, therefore he is seen as a failure; he absolutely will not entertain the possibility of finding a job more suitable to his talents, even though perhaps he could function as a member of society if he did; and he lives in a deluded bubble, angry, self-righteous, too proud for his own good... qualities that simply do not survive in America's production-based, time-crunch, fast-food and fast talk society.

Hamlet says, I'll wipe away all trivial fond records, All saws of books, all forms, all pressures past, That youth and observation copied there, And thy commandment all alone shall live Within the book and volume of my brain .....

.... still faces. Rather than providing a forum for racism to grow, the play provides a forum for anti-racism discussion, if all proper steps are taken.
