Now that Barack Obama is president, my students have decided--after much discussion--that it's time for me to update the reading list in my sophomore English class. It's not that they don't appreciate Mark Twain's satire of "civilization" in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, or that they don't pick up on the friendship that develops between Huck and Jim as they escape down the Mississippi River. It's just that they get tired of encountering the "n-word" some 200 times while reading Twain's classic novel.
