The N word

Many awesome literature have been banned or edited in order to lessen the offense by some racial discriminating languages used such as the N word. Although I am not a literature guy, I find it offensive for governments and publishers to edit those arts in order to fit their standard. If those racial activists can not take it, might as well as not purchase it. Art is not created to please everyone. You can't say such art used too much red (bloody) lets ban this artist. Its just not how the way we treat art. In fact, I find it absurd for anyone to take insults from books. Those books were created to picture the time in the story. Sorry, but the sad fact is that not everyone back in those days know about equality and talk in such great manner that those people who are complaining do. Such ideas of banning works that contains the n word is ridiculous. By editing, not only the work of the author is no longer kept to its completeness, but also the description and projection of the era is no longer complete. To sum up, no literature should be banned or edited because of its racial contents and those who find it offensive should just suck it up and be a man/woman.
