this thread is NOT NOT NOT about racism.
Let's NOT go there!!!!
Keep the discussion off racism and this thread will not be deleted.
This about how political correctness, and censorship influences publishing and the rewriting of history.
Publisher of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, NewSouth Books, has just published a version of the classic with the N-word replaced by the word, slave.
Good idea?
Or bad?
