Jim was a slave and broke free from his owners, his everyday struggles, then met Huck. Jim's social status and life was changed when he left and started a new life with his loyal friend. Being a slave was his background, it was what he came from. But even though it was all he knew, he didn't let it hold him back from achieving his dream life. While slavery isn't a main topic of the book and is only in the beginning, it still serves a strong purpose and is Jim's past. "Racism - Google Search". Google.com. N. p., 2016.
