Possibly, but they're very unlikely to be racist.
I have no problem with anyone reading the book and pointing out where they feel racism may have surfaced. In fact that's plays a big role in my interest in the book. But, to read the title and act as censor for us all informing us that this one needs to go; come on. Particularly in light of these comments I think it may generate some great discussion.
