<span>Although Dee has discarded her rural roots for an education, she returns to visit Mama (her mother) and surprises her by wearing traditional African clothing, changing her name, and having a Muslim husband. Dee is attempting to reclaim her heritage from Africa, but in the process, she is also rejecting her immediate African American background. The fact that she changes her name, from Dee to Wangero (an African name) disrespects her cultural heritage because "Dee" is a family name that can be traced back many generations.

Fortinbras and Hamlet quarrel over Fortinbras's right to be in Denmark.
WITCHER [35]
It is false that Fortinbras and Hamlet quarrel over Fortinbras's right to be in Denmark. The king was Claudius, and when he was killed (and when everybody else died), Fortinbras came to Denmark and became the next king.
