I've made a lot more progress in Huckleberry Finn and it's weird now that I'm older and chuddier. I can understand why a black person wouldn't feel comfortable reading that book because Jim is so absolutely fricking r-slurred, and Huck just keeps saying "well that's a dumb BIPOC for you." I always remembered the more progressive parts of it and everything else Twain did and said, but holy shit and I know it technically equally mocks a lot of white people as stupid, but there are just full chapters of Jim having extended "but I did eat breakfast this morning" arguments with Huck.
