But when you think about it could be offended by it.]]> 2016-08-03 14:56:38 UTC https://padlet.com/7213/5fox37a5op32/wish/117465044 https://padlet.com/7213/5fox37a5op32/wish/117465052 Question: Why does changing the word nigger to slave affect the book Huckleberry Finn?

Research: What the articles say is that the word slave is less offending than the word nigger. However, the word slave most people think of a black person when they hear slave. So really it kind of doesn't change anything because that might offend someone.

Altering Twain’s novel is not one-hundred percent necessary because the word helps convey the different time period. I can see both sides of the argument though, and if people feel more comfortable reading the censored version then I don’t see why they can’t."]]> 2016-08-03 15:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/7213/5fox37a5op32/wish/117467893
