...article of mine to which Adair is professing to respond has a very simple thesis: I don't care about what goes on in the bedrooms of my fellow students. I write, "I am not at all curious about what you do in your bedroom[s]." In another instance I respond to statements by BGLTSA co-chair Andre K. Sulmers '98, "Only a small number of people on campus are concerned about the sex life of Andre Sulmers." I further explain, "Most of Harvard doesn't care if you are [homosexual]."

...about the Persian Gulf War, he tells me, and right away I become terribly curious to know what kind of film he's come up with. But he warns that because of his responsibilities at UMass and the Archive, it will probably be some time before it gets finished.

The voice of her husband echoes over hers as Mozelle steps into the scene, which is presented through a mirror. The audience watches Eve as she watches Mozelle participating in her own story.

...history lesson, Umabatha is straightforward and brings out the parallels quite successfully. When viewed as an adaptation of Shakespeare, however, the play starts to look like a rather curious beast, and one isn't sure exactly what to make of it. Umabatha sticks fairly close to the main points of Shakespeare's text, retaining its great scenes and its characters, but, of course, those characters and the story itself undergo a process of transformation into a Zulu context...
