did anyone want to hear a #Shakespeare speech castigating nativist cruelty against #immigration?

of course such a speech exists: bigoted malice against #immigrants is not new. the wicked have long yoked the ignorant and indecent for power

it refers to a real event: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_May_Day

it is called "The Strangers' Case" speech

from the play "Sir Thomas More"

here delivered by #IanMcKellen from memory

( #Gandalf, #Magneto, etc)

on "The Late Show With #StephenColbert"
