Act 3 Iago is bad..... (Iago speaking to Roderigo)

1. What is Iago trying to make other people think?  

Iago wants people to think Othello as a beast which should be destroyed. He wants other to think negative about Othello and support Iago to remove Othello from his General status and make Iago as the General of Italy.


2. What tactics does Iago rely on to make his victims believe him?

Iago uses racism to make others feel negative on Othello. Most of tactics Iago uses are racism to describe Othello since the race is only thing that Iago think he is better that Othello. He also uses nationalism like describing Othello as barbaric Turkish man of African who should be removed from sacred place: Italy.


P.S. ::: This is Haitian general who is famous as the first Black formal general even he fought against white people.

MOOR

MOOR

Act 1 scene 1
Now, sir, be judge yourself, Whether I in any just term am affined To love the Moor.


Iago says this line to Brabantio to get help from Brabantio to separate Othello and desdemona.


Act 1 scene 1
For, sir, 
It is as sure as you are Roderigo, 
Were I the Moor, I would not be Iago: 
In following him, I follow but myself; 


Iago says this line to Roderigo to tell him that he follows Othello to serve him self not to show respect to Othello.

Act 1 scene 3
Look to her, Moor, if thou hast eyes to see: 
She has deceived her father, and may thee.


Othello say this line to Brabantio to explain his feeling about Brabantio's daughter.

Scene 1 of Othello (let's begin the Othello)

1. Why do Iago, Roderigo, and Brabantio all hate Othello (the Moor)? 


Because Othello is black man who has everything. He is a general so they can't say anything in front of him. Othello has a wife who is white and daughter of Brabantio. Lago and Roderigo kept thought about it is bad that white woman and black man shouldn't be together.


3. Given the way they are talking about him, what kind of a person would you expect Othello to be?

They talk about him like he was a beast or animal. Because of racism and jealousy, Lago and Roderigo tell Brabantio that Brabantio's daughter is having a sexual act with black beast which is Othello...
