Fixing Text

There's some schools talking about pulling To Kill a Mockingbird (the classic) because of racial discrimination text.  

The aim?  Well.....all that sensitive text and dialog.

I sat and pondered over this.

Maybe you just need to change the characters.

This Finch-guy for example....why couldn't he be Bombay-Indian-American?

The daughter?  'Scout'?  She could be half-transgirl, half-transboy,  half-wolf.

This 'Boo' guy who was always so mysterious?  Make him into an escaped lunatic clown-killer.

This Calpurnia-gal....the black-cook in the house?  Make her into a freaked-out Texas gal who seems to be cocaine an doped-up half the time.

This Bob Ewell guy?  The guy who was mostly drunk and never seemed to have a dollar....but accuses Tom Robinson of raping his daughter?  Make him into a fired CNN executive who has brain-fog from Covid.  

I'm sure that we can fix the text....to make folks happy.
