Very proud of you, and looking forward to the new versions of the songs. I'm sure it's much, much harder to make this sort of decision when there's that much of your work affected by it than it would be for other folks.
I am so impressed by this. By the way that you're saying it publicly without defensiveness or trying to offload blame, and by the way you're taking steps to remove the references even where it is complicated or difficult. There was a situation I was frustrated by recently where someone whose work I admired reacted badly to being told their public word choice was poor. I know it's hard to really listen and change rather than brushing people off. Thank you.
