One might readily surmise that the pride and dedication they put forth was at least twice that of their white counterparts, inasmuch as they knew the expectations placed upon them would be scrutinized every step of the way, since many others believed the black men were deficit in intelligence, skill, courage and patriotism.

Huck Finn is Not a Racist Book
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that argues that Huck Finn is not a racist book. It has become a perennial issue that books, even classics, that contain “’racially offensive’” words should be banned from high school curricula and Mark Twain’s classic Huckleberry Finn is always a target of such campaigns (Bertin 18). The irony in this situation is the idea that Mark Twain’s novel could be viewed as anything other than a humanistic classic that stands up for the rights of individuals, particularly blacks, in the face of a societal context that legitimized and tolerated gross racial injustice. Examination of Twain’s classic shows that it is most definitively not racist, but is rather a manifesto against racism, injustice and the glorification of the past. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
