title: Str.replace('\\', '') not working for backslashes
body: <p>I want to remove backslashes and I've read that you can use </p>
  
  <pre><code>Str.replace('\\', '') 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've also tried</p>
  
  <pre><code>re.sub(r'\\', '',text)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However both do not work for me. I'm wondering if someone can help me figure out what is wrong. </p>
  
  <pre><code>text = ['with General Atlantic, Newman\'s Own Foundation, The Pershing Square Foundation, Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, and Echoing Green announced a three-year partnership which will invest']
  text.replace('\\','')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I still get 'Newman\'s Own Foundation'</p>
  
  <p>To clarify:
   I'm attempting to get words with Consecutive words where first letters are capitalized, as in proper nouns. The backslash messes up this regex from capturing Newman's Own. So it seems like removing the backslash isn't the best idea? r'\b(?
  
  <p>I'm getting the backslashes when I print the text in ipython notebook</p>
