The N Word?

            In a way yes, the authors had very good points on the N- Word. To be honest I hate saying it that way. It is a word that People have given power, authority, and themselves to. If we do what we are suppose to do, which is to love one another as we love ourselves, no word would ever have an effect on us no matter what color we are. We are the same! I myself have loved many of many races and we all felt the same, that no words or person with words could change the way we loved one another. That our bonds were far stronger than any word or a person with words could ever brake. As a mother of two little white girls I would say that I am striving to build a better future. One in which it won't matter what your color, race, sex, age is to any other. It will be based on if you are a good soul, and are you willing to add to the best future we could want for our next generation.
     
          With this said, I will not accept the changes to any historical literature to the words it has in it. The authors of the literary works of art used those specific words to make a point, not to hurt anyone, but to let the future know the truth. I am sure they where trying to educate the future generations to not repeat what was going on at that time. What is the saddest thing in my eyes is that we have to fight for the right to have our history be taught to our children the way it was intended, not the way they want to rewrite it. To me it sounds like a certain Ray Bradbury novel.
