Also, I never understood what the proper etiquette is for citing rap songs that use "nigger" or "nigga". For example, you see a woman who is obviously looking for a rich guy. You turn to your friends and say, "I ain't sayin' she's a gold digga, but she ain't messin' with no broke nigga". Does anyone have a right to be offended (other than the gold digger) ?
You could change it to "broke bro" like they did for Glee

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.
"The trophy problem has become extreme."

That's nothing that new. I read Sawyer and Huck Finn when I was like 10, and it was definitely water

There's a difference between a kids' version and a normal version with a censored word, though. *NM*

Wouldn't the "kids' versions" ALREADY have that word excised? *NM*

Read real books then. What kind of ten year old needs to read dumbed down children's books?

No, the goal of the book (or one of them) was to illustrate authentic dialogue. Your brain sucks.

it still boils down to the fact that most teachers will not use a book with word nigger in it

Reacting to "nigger" like that makes the word more hurtful.
