With the division the PT have caused, my take is to accept the stories, but omit the details. Include the visual, but ignore the dialog. Basically the events happened, those places and species exist, but they shouldn’t refer back to them in any great detail. Coruscant, Naboo, Utapau, could be mentioned or revisitied. The Trade Federation could be a contender again in the ST. Some of those species and places were destroyed by the Empire so you probably want to omit those. Definitely don’t include any Gungans unless they are in the background of a crowd. One thing I was very disappointed in was that The Force Awakens featured so few of the OT or PT aliens. It was great to see new owes, but some of the old ones (other than Nien Nunb and Admiral Ackbar) would have been nice. It was nice to see a different group of Mon Calamari and Ponda Baba in Rogue One. Like in The Last Jedi, if Luke tells Rey what happened during the fall of Anakin and the Republic, it should follow the story of the PT. When you summarize the stories they are pretty good. My kids have the Little Golden Book editions and in those the PT are greatly improved by glossing over things. So at that level, they cease to have the objectionable content (except for Jar Jar - he should never be mentioned again).
