By censoring, they are opening the door to allowing teachers to opt-out on providing the historical context that comes along with those words. I am more bothered by the fact that the schools are choosing not to read the book based on language than I am about the censorship. I see this as another unfortunate consequence of the "dumbing down" of American schools.
