I'm surprised this is just now getting to GC, but I think this is stupid. And replacing it with "slave" instead. One, it's not always going to make sense, two, it thoroughly implies that all usage or it was in that context.

And I agree with the rap song points. If you can't use it in literature you shouldn't be able to use it in a song. But that isn't ever going to stop.
Whatever, maybe it's fine for school editions, but I don't think it should be taken out of all editions. Then again, who read Huck Finn except during school? Was kind of boring.

Oh. And I liked The Great Gatsby when I read it the first time. Maybe because I had to read three other VERY borings books that summer class, but I enjoyed it.
