The Adventures of Huckelbery Finn

Mark Twain wrote “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” in the 1800’s. During this time slavery was socially acceptable. Even in the church it was taught that there was nothing wrong with slavery. Black people were often referred to as “niggers”. Huck, even though he was a friend of Jim, didn’t even think twice about calling a black person a nigger. Huck would say things like “Give a nigger an inch and he’ll take an ell.”(86) He didn’t see anything wrong with using language like this. He didn’t see anything wrong with it because he was taught to call black people niggers just like his dad did and everyone else around him did also. During this period in history in the south, that is how people talked. I think the meaning of the word nigger was different then than it is now.

The word nigger was used in this book because in the 1800’s it was common language. It did not have the same impact on a person back then as it does today. Jim even uses the word nigger freely
