Wednesday, January 5, 2011
The publishers of Huck Finn are changing the word Nigger in their books to Slave and it has many quite outraged over it - and not just the ones you'd think.

Huck Finn challenged everyone's few of race and America is a better culture for it. You can't just erase that history.
