GEORGE:
Today: the social contract.
Who bears the risk, who gets protected, who gets blamed, and who gets forgotten—
in plague-time England and in COVID-era America.
Quick reminder: my Shakespeare can look back from the present day at his life on earth—films, scholarship, modern claims—
but he cannot predict the future. No prophecy.
WILL:
Memory, yes.
Foresight, no.
GEORGE:
When I say “social contract,” I don’t mean a philosophy seminar.
I mean the unwritten deal we make in a crisis:
Who is asked to sacrifice?
Who is allowed to stay safe?
Who is policed?
Who is believed?
WILL:
And who is… expendable.
Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
