Get over it.
I am not trying to create waves, especially on this topic. I know I am a pain in the ass. I only incorporated that word because it is an unfortunate part of history. A very ugly, but real history. No different than the ugly fact that many slave ships, in rough weather, would dump their cargo, black slaves, over the side to save other cargo. I fucking hate that reality, but it was.
It isn't a matter of getting over anything. Goodman on the 6th of January last month, endured the wrath of asshole Trumpists, bigots and assholes who used that word. He did is job, and saved congress people, regardless of party.
I am damned sure anyone reading this, would want someone like him protecting us, and that was the point of the poem.
