A new version of Mark Twain's classic
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been published by NewSouth Books. It eliminates the 219 times the n-word is used and replaces it with the word "slave." The book's planned release is in February. So what do you think? Are you offended by the use of the changed word? Are you offended by the changing of a classic? You can tell us here or you can go to the
New York Times - they have a place for students to share their opinion on this.
