Not sure about any of that. I do know she wrote at least a version in the fifties. I doubt she rewrote the whole thing to make Atticus racist in the last couple of years. Still, the whole publication history is extremely shady. I don't plan on reading it personally.

Not sure I buy that, especially considering the current climate. Can't have white men championing the causes of black men. We're all racists, after all.

This whole thing is just to assassinate Atticus as an iconic civil rights hero. It just stinks of it.
