Rewriting Novels To Reflect Current Political Correctness
Personally, I disagree with this decision. As I sit here in Pandora World and listen to Will-I-Am proclaim he's going to be a "rich nigger", I can't help but wonder why classic novels are scrubbed of what was certainly a cultural fact from that period in time. I mean, it is undeniable that vernacular was historically accurate in Twain's setting. So, why is history fair game to scrub when modern culture is completely unwilling to scrub?
