Mark Twain soon to follow.

Adventures of Huck Finn already long-banned by many schools and libraries. A black protagonist is fine, but don't call him "Nigger Jim."

“Mark Twain soon to follow.”

That was my first thought. John Wayne was my second. I know his work is not literature, but the reasons are the same.
