Getting to Know Huck & Jim
Working together
making whoops to find each other
Huck takes initiative as Jim is conditioned to be passive/submissive
Huck vs Jim's values
Jim doesn't really like adventures, as they end badly
Huck sees adventures as exciting
Unlike Huck, Jim hadn't heard of as many stories
You can see how Jim is less educated but still smart in his interpretation of the stories
doesn't believe the French don't speak English
Jim is less influenced by these stories
comparison of Solomon to white's treatment towards black people
Solomon being unable to value human life properly from having so many children
both are able to teach other something - both have narrow views in different ways
Huck's conscience
he struggles with the idea of Jim working to escape his owner and buy his wife & kids
he feels as if its bad of him to help Jim with that
It most froze me to hear such talk. He wouldn’t ever dared to talk
such talk in his life before.
“Give a nigger an inch and he’ll take an ell.”
He realises that if he turned Jim in he'd feel just as bad - so he decides from now on he'll just follow his feelings rather than what society has taught him
"The words couldn't come. I tried to...brace up and out with it, but i wasn't man enough."
Decides not to when Jim calls out to him and thanks him for being a great friend
Jim is still optimistic despite everything
Huck is beginning to challenge his society's values and question what he believes to be right
