Slavery was a huge part of history many years ago, and even after it became illegal many people had a hard time changing their way of life and thought. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a cherished novel that clearly addresses the reality of slavery and it’s everlasting presence on society. Humans are no stranger to racism and inequality in both fiction and real life, with people still being affected today. Even though slavery is legally ended, through the book characters relationships, morals, and actions Mark Twain sets the novel before the abolition of slavery to show that racism never really ended, and he is trying to change it.
