Miss Watson constantly corrects Huck for his unacceptable behavior, but Huck doesn't understand why, "That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don't know nothing about .....

If describing experiences that deal with life, and how a boy overcame them are immoral and trashy, then I guess these critics who put down this book are the most perfect people in the world and have never faced any major problems in their life. Sure, not all people run away from home and float along the Mississippi River but there are many people who have problems such as: broken homes, finding friendship, being educated, and many other problems that Huck Finn experienced. Thes .....

almost all high school and college english students all we do is drudge up the past. English classes can survive withou such controversy being reintroduced year after year. All the same we can not let ourselves shy away from the uncomfortable just because it hurts to face it. Ignoring the problem of racism will not make it go away. It needs to be confronted and dealt with in a responsible and well informed manner. Without historical and literary backround it would be simply impossible to find a soluti .....

Huckleberry Finn - A Racist No
.... in some foolish things. But all the same, he is
visited by both blacks and whites to use the hairball's powers. This
type of naivete was abundant at the time and found among all races-the
result of a lack of proper education. So the depiction of Jim is not

aspect of the story clearly there is no racism intended.
It is next necessary to analyze the way white characters treat Jim
