By Erika Rothenberg
This piece creatively exposes American "exceptionalism" (and its hubris, corruption, privilege, and prejudice) in a non-didactic and humorous way, with an intersectional feminist edge. Rothenberg's recurring themes of how proud we humans are of what we think up, and how we use those ideas to destroy each other take center stage in this fun and commanding piece.
