look at the character of not just jim, but the state of america at the time and the state of the freedmenersus the freemen versus the 19th century. -- during the 19th century. and trying to help student and classroom teaching -- students and classroom teachers understand just how important this particular text is, how pivotal and important it is, and how complex jim's character is, as well as huckleberry finn's. it's a rhetorical deep dive into who these characters are, what america was like at this time, and looking not just at the characters in the story, but also the concept of what was happening in society at that time. >> professor chadwick, you taught english for many years at high school level. did you teach huck finn? >> absolutely. it was my juniors. and to be honest, father, who first read it to me when i was seven, he read it to meet allowed on his knee -- out loud on his knee, and it was my juniors that helped me to understand that i needed to go back to graduate school so that i could truly understand the depth and the power, i needed to understand the writing strategy and ha
