Hello, I am Johnny's mother and I am so stupid I do not understand what this book is about so nobody else should be allowed to read it.

this from a parent who probably thinks the word "niggardly" is a racial slur..

You don't suppose the mother is a democrat, what with the opposition to civil rights and all through out the years.

For interest, in Marshall Michigan there is a plaque dedicated to the Adam Crosswhite Affair. A slave made it to Marshall in 1858 with his family, and then had three more children. Bounty hunters arrived in town and arrested them (but not the northern born children). The town had a riot and broke into the jail to rescue the family. The family went into hiding.

I think I need to read Huckleberry Finn again before some nazi raids my small library.

This perspective is not as rare as I had thought, unfortunately.

Don't blame Johnny's mother. Blame the Assistant Superintendent for giving in to the mother's request.
