    adventure just like the ones described by Tom Sawyer. That is why when Huck was alone with Jim, he would naturally assume the position of Tom. Just like how he would be subservient to Tom, Jim was in no position to question Huck, someone who was “superior” to him in every aspect.

    and people tend to display victim-blaming rationalization. They may believe that it is their own fault that they are seen that way and if they were to just work harder and commit less crime they would be able to get out of poverty and be seen more superior. This also goes hand with foreigners being more intelligent or the “nerds” of a school.
