THIS IS THE END...
Hi guys can you believe that we finished Huck Finn? So with in these last few chapter I noticed a big factor on enslavement. Huck was enslaved by Tom Swayer. When Huck and Tom are trying to free Jim from Uncle Silas "jail" cellar. Since Huck is the type to look for the most adventurous ways, he is not willing to agree with Tom. Since Tom is the educated one, he planes out this scheme according to the books. Huck is enslaved by Tom his "knowledge ". Especially when they are in the "cell" with Jim, Tom says Jim "needs" to write his name in the wall and a coat of arms. Tim's reasoning behind the "Needs" is because all the nobles do it in his books. This enslavement is also show through Jim! (Who would of known). It is obvious that Jim is captured and is put in to ( what I call) a jail cell. He is back to the " slave" life. I do notice that Jim is more like a prisoner than a slave. After all he is a runaway slave and was captured, and in Uncle Silas' land, he is on the lowest level of slavery.

I cannot believe that we are done with this book, either. Pretty soon, we’ll be graduating. I like how you brought up the point that Huck is enslaved by Tom. Although Huck can clearly take care of himself as we found out throughout the novel, Tom’s education sets him apart. I don’t think that Tom is the alpha male type, but he is a good leader and gives Huck something to look up to. Huck just wants someone to believe and look at for advice, and Tom provides him that person. In a weird, and very stretched way, Tom can almost be looked at as Huck’s father figure.
I know right! I'm so happy we finished the book. I also thought Jim was enslaved by Tom's crazy ideas that he considers fun. And Tom is definitely someone Huck looks up to because Tom is everything Huck isn't and he mentions it at one point. I think it's nice to look up to someone but in this case, Huck didn't really benefit or learn anything great from Tom. I'm also glad Jim was freed and feel that the book sort of ended on a good note. But somehow I feel that the only freed ones were Huck and Jim since the Duke and King probably got trashed and Tom had to go back to living with the rules of society.
