Fair points on all counts.
As someone who also read the book and was shocked that Tom wasn’t the minstrel show Tom that really earned the name: this weird effort to take back his name is self defeating and artificial.
It says quite a lot that people also try to say “Maybe we should call them Uncle Ruckuses instead!”
Mainly, it says they’re not clued in enough to realize the show/comic had two Uncle Toms. One had Uncle in his name, the other Tom.
MacGruder wasn’t being very subtle, and yet everyone seems to have missed it anyways.
Hell, if nothing else this whole weird idea is erasure of the minstrel shows. If you want to raise some actual awareness then feel free to separate Book Tom from Minstrel Tom, because we need to remember both.
