The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is an original American classic. In Laura Otten’s article about how the book is about racism throughout the entire novel is correct and with further evidence and explanations, it is quite clear that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a book about racism. Throughout the novel the main character Huck has internal and external actions and conflict about topics based on racism and there are others that represent conflicts to do with racism as well. Especially when a novel uses vulgar words used when talked about specific races, the book is about racism. Huck himself is a racist although he is friends with a runaway slave named Jim. Together, Huck and Jim escape their homes to be “free.”
