I'm definitely not for book burning or banning. I support Borders, actually, and am glad that they didn't drop the book altogether. At the same time, I agree with Mr. Enright: a book with these sentiments should not be marketed to children.
Disney doesn't sell Song of the South anymore (and I've never seen it as a result). I think that's analogous. I am glad the book is still around so that we can look at it as an artifact of its time.
