    Hey I need exact quotes from Huckleberry Finn on racism .I already have "Good Gracious! anybody hurt?" "No'm just killed a nigger"

    So any others could be really helpful. Also if you know the chapter or page number it would be great too! Thanks!

    Anyone??? ..........

    I need some clarity. Do you mean quotations that illustrate racist thinking on the part of the characters, or things said in the novel that illustrate that HF is a "racist" novel. I think there's a difference. Even then, the presence of the "n" word does not - by itself - indicate racism in this novel.
