Huckelberry
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn An adventure of Huckleberry Finn this book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. In the 20th century because of its perceived use of racial stereotypes and because of its frequent uses of the racial slur, despite that the main protagonist, and the tenor of the book, is anti-racist. Now they are making a new version of this novel that is censored. They are censoring this novel for the words that they use in the novel. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was published in 1885 and has since caused controversy over the novels use of “the n-word”. It’s censorship. The language Mark Twain uses this key to understanding the book.
In my opinion the controversial edition of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was censored to remove the “n” word. I don't think that Huck Finn should be censored. I am against censorship in all its forms, first of all. Second, by censoring a book to make it more acceptable to certain group’s palates we take something away from its original intention. None of us are Mark Twain and no amount of analysis can tell us why he used the "n" word or what he would think about its removal. I think this novel may point towards a racist, pro-slavery stance that actually, if you study it carefully, is never actually there. Mark Twain was very progressive and anti-racist despite his character's use of racial epithets. In my opinion, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been a target of censors in high schools, colleges, libraries, and religious institutions. One reason people have banned, or attempted to ban, the book is its characterization of Huckleberry Finn as a wayward child who defies his elders and society in general. Another reason, cited by some black Americans, is that the book seems to depict Jim as a negative stereotype that racists use to reinforce their prejudice. Particularly objectionable to many critics of the novel is the frequent use of the word nigger
