Racism and Slavery in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn The subjugation of blacks is arguably one of the most shameful actions that took place in American history. Slavery was used for financial gain and those who were enslaved were treated horribly. The literature of the time demonstrates the mindset of early American society that those with dark skin are lesser individuals.

Huckleberry Finn: Passage pg. 283 284 Mark Twain’s novel Huckleberry Finn is a blatant concoction of religious bias and varied notions on the role of religion. Satirical characters and the obvious use of sarcastic ideals in regards to the religious situations within the novel allowed Twain to address the issue on so many different levels. Huckleberry Finn is introduced‚ as being a religious character‚ as he looks to pray and reflect on virtues of right and wrong as dictated by those religious
