The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson is a novel written by Mark Twain in 1893.
" There is no character, howsoever good and fine, but it can be destroyed by ridicule, howsoever poor and witless. Observe the ass, for instance: his character is about perfect, he is the hoicest spirit among all the humbler animals, yet see what ridicule has brought him to. Instead of feeling complimented when we are called an ass, we are left in doubt. —Pudd’nhead Wilson’s Calendar".

Conversations about race and evidence continue. The book probes bias, classification, and the ethics of naming, while reminding us that tools do not absolve judgment.
