Комментарий:Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn were excluded from the
juvenile sections of the Brooklyn Public library (among other
libraries), and banned from the library in Concord, MA, home of Henry
Thoreau. Huckleberry Finn has been dropped from high school reading
lists due to alleged racism. For example, in March of 1995, such
concerns caused it to be removed from the reading list of 10th grade
English classes at National Cathedral School in Washington, DC,
according to the Washington Post. A New Haven correspondent reports it
has been removed from one public school program there as well. Recent
objections have often concerned the use of the word "nigger", a word
that also got Uncle Tom's Cabin challenged in Waukegan, Illinois. For a
comprehensive web site describing attempts to ban Huckleberry Finn and
other Twain works, see the site Huckleberry Finn Debated, by Jim Zwick.
