The Killers

In the book Huckleberry Finn, I too am asked to answer the question: What are the similarities between Huck and Jim flight flight, and I have no idea what that means. Can anyone provide assistance?

Huck shows compassion. Twain is trying to say freedom is not only the answer, equality is also important.

Huck is a type fundamentally, compassionate person who, as he said later, Mary Jane Wilks, can not bear to see people in need. If the episode is Walter Scott as far as you've read so far, stand by for other incidents in which he shows sympathy, even for people who have done their best to harm him.

Now that Huck is running away? That, in so far as he knows, is likely to happen to him if he is found? What about Jim? Now, you see similarities? Of course, Huck has done a good job to pretend he is dead, but the fact is he will not return to St. Petersburg until he learns something about the last page. As for Jim, if they both know, he faces a life of slavery. It might be useful here if you've read The Secret Life of Bees, which took place over 100 years later, but in which a young adult black and white also flee their hometown - the teen with a brutal father and adult oppression of the law. It happens that these two women at once!
