People are using the word censorship.
To be clear on this - censorship would be criminalising and prohibiting the distribution of copies using the racial slurs in questions
This story, as I understand it, is issuing a copy of the book without racial slurs which some people believe is more suitable for young readers? I am not aware of any attempts to ban the existing format of the book?
