for some just leaving the south as an idea is unspeakable i reckon it has probably been that way since twain attempted to make money from making a typer writer function
Anonymous No.24617154 [Report]
i also reckon that twain made it probably incorrect to speak in probably four or five dialectics in english not to mention what was said about momsen or the germans or about river boat captaining

That happened to me in middle school. We were reading aloud about Egypt, and instead of saying Niger River, I thought it'd be funny to say Nigger River.

Nobody laughed. I heard some of the kids in my class actually gasp in shock, like they thought they were actors in a movie or something. The worst part was that the teacher made me go out during recess (I got detention, obviously) and find the one black kid that was in our class so I could apologize to him. I did it, but he also literally didn't give af that I said that shit either.

That part where Huck is arguing with Nigger Jim about how people speak other languages and Jim saying he would knock somebody out if they ever called him "parlez vous francais" is pretty funny

Why does he call him that and Jim never calls him White man Finn? Why do White men in classic fiction treat a racial group like they would a title.

It's weird, why even bother to give your ethnic characters names

It is cause the south was fucked up. That is part of the reason why characters like the duke or the dauphin are running around too probly.

Because when a race stands out from a group of homogeneous people, they tend to point that out.

The current day equivalent would be somebody in a suburban white Ohio saying, "Oh you know Jim! The black kid on that street."

Common misconception. Huck does not ever actually call him "Nigger Jim." Nobody does. They just call him Jim, and remark at times upon the fact that he is indeed a nigger.
