I Really think everyone need to sit back and take a breather Why are you all using your 2005 looking glass to judge some 80 year old books in that time the political correctness of our time did nt exist Nonwhite asians africans russians and so on Women beggers gypsies and people with defects diabetes epilepsy and such where all seen as lesser races of the human race That Lovecraft shared these views do nt really make it special it would if he did nt though Many state that all are white in his books well so were they in other classic novels but that really do nt prove much do it in the color purple all actors are african and in the last emporer all actors are chinese does that make them racist Lovecraft was as most other white of that time a social racist nothing more and nothing less but is there a need to mention it no do nt think so just as little as it is need to mention his views on women as a lead character or hero if we did we might as well start editing all autors from all over the world adding racist to their title if their books are older than 70 years or there is a all monoraced envioment or if the evil has another color than the hero well lets just write racist on everyone in the writing and movie industry o
