The word "blackest" was often replaced with "darkest" to avoid racist connotations.
This is not my opinion. It's just an interesting fact and has to do with Sociolinguistic.

The Oath:
"In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!

—Hal Jordan/All Current Lanterns

    It's only racist if you want it to be

  • @WildWest1122 As much as I hate to admit it, Hal Jordan himself changes the word to "darkest" in his later years. I think its Green Lantern Vol.3 #43. He tells Kalmaku that he is becoming politically correct. Even though DC writers screwed that one up, most of us will stick to "blackest night."
