So now we rewrite classics to apease our current sensibilities?

Huck Finn Gets Some Changes

Many of the comments appear to be against the changes. One person sarcastically writes, "I love when people erase racism and pretend it never happened."
Can't speak for any black people, but as far the "Injun" reference goes, I can say it doesn't really bother me personally, I'm part cherokee and if they're going to change this, then Cleveland, DC, Atlanta, Chicago better start looking for new sports mascots!
