In a world where a reality star is calling herself a novelist, when I believe she didn’t even write most of it herself, someone has the unmitigated gall to think they can change Mark Twain’s work.
Have you heard this? Someone decided the Huckleberry Finn would be better off without the N-word in it.
Now I am not saying it is socially acceptable to use that word, I don’t go around saying it, but we are talking about a classic piece of literature. We are also talking about the loss of a great teaching point. How are we to teach our children not to be racist when we can no longer show them what racist is?
Excuse me while I hide under my covers. Whatever comes next is not going to be good.
