Huckleberry Finn Comparison
Huck Finn Comparison The person I am going to compare from Huck Finn is my dad and Huck’s dad. First off Huck’s dad doesn't want Huck to be well educated because he himself is not educated. Also Huck’s dad does not want him to become civilized or sophisticated. Because he does not want him to be any better than he is. Also he beats him left and right. He is hardly ever at home always out and about doing whatever.
On the contrary my dad is always encouraging me to go for my education. Also he is a civilized person and taught me to be the same. Also my dad has never left a mark on me ever. And he is a very honest man and always there when we need him. That is the comparison between my dad and Huck’s dad. Next my comparison is between Huck Finn …show more content…
For example if I go to a mountain I will make my own trail, not follow another person’s “safe” trails. I also like to experience new things as Huck does. So actually I have more in common with Huck than I had first thought. And things Huck did that I have not done, or ever see myself doing in the near future, is dress like a girl, kill a pig to fake my death, and run away from my home. And finally I would like to compare Jim to the average African American today. First Jim is a slave and by that term not treated kindly. In fact that is an understatement. He is brutally mistreated. He earns no money to his name, He gets no vacation time, and He is literally worked to death. And has every right to have the same rights as a white person. So has a reason to run away. Now the average African American today is way better off than Jim. They all have equal rights, they earn wages, they get the same amount of vacation time as we do, have the right to vote, and equal education. But yet they still are living in the past. Why is it that a white person could be called a cracker without retaliation, but as soon as that same white person spits out the “N” word, not saying that it’s OK, they start getting mad and start yelling and threatening? Do you want to know why? It’s because people cannot forgive. Yes that part in history isn't our best moment, but that’s why it’s called history because it’s in the past. We can’t change the past we can only learn from
