And, what about Mark Twain? The n word (no, not the niggardly one, the other one) appears 219 times in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The work-around here is an expurgated version that replaces the horrifying word with Indian and slave. That seems a bit sacrilegious to the book about which Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.”
Oh! You mean Nigger? Oh thats right, Nigger is a no no word now. Unless you are black, then you can say Nigger. Or a rapper. Rappers are allowed to sing about Nigger this and Nigger that all day long
