compromise differently. " Liberals tend to favor
equality more than liberty than conservatives do.

Huckleberry Finn Huck Doesnt

Huckleberry Finn A Racist Novel? There is a major
argument among literary critics whether
Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, is or is not a
racist novel. The question boils down to the
depiction of Jim, the black slave, and to the way

presents Jim in a negative light. He does not show
Jim as a drunkard, as a mean...
