Annotation:
	Considers how All’s Well That Ends Well’s Helen “dismantles the logic that makes the politics of blood possible,” undermining systems of inheritance and wealth transmission through familial bloodlines used to justify and uphold racial hierarchies. Explores how women “counter nature” in play and thereby disrupt racial categories.
