Mark Twain, Huckleberry Finn

In "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" Mark Twain argues the force behind slavery is submissiveness by Huck always yielding to adults, Huck being a pacifist by not wanting to cause trouble, Jim's obedience to the white man, and Jim's view on his ascribed status in society. Twain uses these four ideas to portray his view on slavery shortly after the civil war.

Huck lets adults walk all over him particularly by pap and the two con men. Pap uses his force and violent words to derive money out of Huck:

All right. I'll ask him; and I'll make him pungle, too, or I'll know the reason why. Say-how much you got in your pocket? I want it. (21)

I hain't got only a dollar, and I want that to-(21)

It don't make no difference what you want it for-you just shell it out. (21)

Huck then responds to that by giving Pap the dollar. By the exchange of the dollar to his Pap Twain shows evidence of Huck's submissiveness to adults by just letting


By Twain writing this shows that Huck is indeed a person of a pacifist nature because it evidences Huck's view on how he should treat adults no matter who they are. As a result of this Huck is in some ways a slave to the adult in society by him always doing as he is told and never putting up a fight. He may use the occasional lie in some instances, but for the most part he yields to adults all throughout the book.

Twain portrays Huck as a pacifist by Huck submitting to people because he doesn't want to cause trouble. Maybe this could allude to the "Respect your elders" saying, but to me it is a form of slavery through a teen-age white boy.

his Pap take the dollar. Huck did not even put up a fight, which also shows his pacifist ways by thinking that he did not want to cause trouble because according to Huck, "It ain't worth the trouble."

It didn't take me long to make up my mind that these liars warn't no kings nor dukes, at all, but just low-down humbugs and frauds. But I never said nothing, never let
