Quote:
One publisher of Mark Twain's classic "Huckleberry Finn," New South Books, said this week it plans to remove the word ?nigga? from new editions of the Mark Twain classic, replacing it with ?slave.?
New South also plans to replace the word ?Injun,? a derogatory term for Native Americans.
The effort is to combat U.S. schools and English departments that have been removing the book from their libraries and curriculums because of the word. ?Nigga? appears 219 times in the original ?Huck Finn.?

That's great. Lets get rid of all the lowbrow humor from Shakespeare while we are at it. It might offend women and fags.
