It just does; the burden of justification is on the ones changing it.

>>19227337
>12 years a slave
>story is made worse

The character's monologue becomes unpleasant and at times unreadable. His problem solving abilities are hampered, his charisma and ability to influence others greatly lowered. His recognition of beauty and patterns nonexistent. His guiding light of morality, extinguished.

>his charisma and ability to influence others greatly lowered.
I think you meant is raised to 100. I've never met an uncharismatic nigger.

>>19227673
If that were true the entertainment industry would not be all white...

>>19227673
Your idea of charisma is being frightened of random irrational acts of violence and a deep sense of white guilt leading to servitude. They are influential in the same way a pitbull or a chimpanzee might influence you to run in the other direction.

>>19227673

Acting like a stupid child isn't the same as charisma. Oh just kidding, surely in America it is

>>19227337
I actually got halfway through a wizard of earthsea without realising the main character was black.

I don’t think Moby-Dick would change much considering the crew of the Pequod was already somewhat diverse

>>19227710
>all Jewish
Fixed for you.

>>19227337
nothing changes

>>19227710
Have you looked at the entertainment industry lately? It's all brown people. Every single fucking celeb article is about some black celebrity.

>Humbert gets lynched by angry townspeople

>>19227712
What no. Have you ever hung out with some black guys? There's a weird subset of white dude, that specifically tries to be friends with black dudes, based solely on their blackness, usually heavily into rap. Usually talked into giving rides and shit, you know.
I have opposite problems, ive had multiple black guys try to hang out with me, but there is a reason for that. They usually find out I can make some beats in ableton and have had experience video editing/shooting and also I have jewish sounding name and look pretty jewey, so I think they're usually thinking I can make them some money. Charisma is one hell of a tool.

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

He isn't killing because he thinks he is a justified sinner but because he is... something else.

All this time I thought Meursault was autistic, but now it makes perfect sense.

>>19227337
How would this work out with The Canterbury Tales

>>19228781
Ah the OP specified novels, nvm

Don't think much would change. Maybe people would just be even less welcoming or understanding.

William Stoner was a negro. He was born on a farm and died on a farm.

Instead of being a highly educated retard, Ignatius is now just a retard

>>19229637
His manner of speaking and internal monologue would probably change, but I don't really see the overall story being much different then it actually was desu, especially being set in New Orleans.

>>19227337
>Hamlet
The entire plot can't happen because the ghost doesn't come back

>>19229655
Nah, the story wouldn't even be able to start.
The old man wouldn't stand up for him, he'd be arrested, and treated like the average loudmouthed negro

If Odysseus was black he would have drowned before the book even started

I have had 2 black friends in school and yes they are "cool" but I honestly think I was programmed to automatically think black people are cool by American culture. Plus I felt like I'm walking on eggshells around them because I know if I pronounce even half the N word on accident they're going to see red and start pounding my skinny white ass and everyone around is going to say I deserved it. It's not worth being friends with blacks if I can't say it

>>19227337
I won't read it.

>>19227337
>>choose a novel
>>the protagonist is now black
I unironically read one. S. Lukianenko's satiric trilogy "The Rus island", where it was revealed at the end of 2nd book that the protagonist, an archetypical russian fairy tales protagonist, is just a black guy who got under effect of the "ethno-mental field".
It was played for laughs, of course.
No problems with it, though, but I didnt like that series too much anyway

he already is black.

Black? Do you mean a nigger?
I'm asking because you might mean a dravidian or someone else with dark-skin. I assume you mean a nigger, a violent short-tempered monkey with ADHD.

A black school master in 1850? I doubt it

>>19227337

>The Sound and the Fury
Benjy's verbal IQ is unchanged, but now he gets a scholarship to study medicine at Harvard.

>Lord Jim
Much the same, except the title is of course "The Nigger of the Patna", which sets a pattern for all Conrad's future titles.

>James and the Giant Peach
It's not a peach, it's a watermelon, and during the attack by the sharks, rather than devising a cunning plan, James is found eating their vessel out from the inside, with disastrous consequences.

>The Idiot
Much the same, except Mishkin indulges in constant petty crime and a string of bumbling failed rape attempts which leave Nastasya more amused than annoyed.

>Out of Africa
In a subtle reversal, the protagonist leaves Africa and goes to Denmark to set up a coffee plantation. However, since Denmark is much too cold to grow coffee, her efforts are not rewarded with success.

Let's make Lolita the black one:
Protagonist is never attracted to her and the book doesn't have a plot.

Better idea is to make Humbert Humbert into a southern plantation owner.

>The Wonderous Whiz of Shabboz -- X
A young nubian queen sets forth on a gilded path to meet the much venerated elder of Shabboz as his learned way carries the secret of melainin magic. We all know that danger besets on all sides but with the aid of an introspective so-called "coward," a cold hearted so-called "gangsta," and a man beset by his miseducation in the so-called "white world," she may overcome internalized misidentifications stemming from false proclaimations. Will she realize she has carried melain with her from the very start?
>Docta Leroy Franks -- Monique Sellers
Seeking to restore his culture, a young black medical student injects melanin into the corpse of a recently desceased underground rapper. However, the act of creation soon turns tragic as white society steals Frank's ideas and uses it to reanimate dead black entertainers for their own enjoyment. They always be copying us.
