''Huckleberry Finn'' is a story about the friendship between two outcasts, one a 13-year-old streetwise (white) [[urchin]], the other a mature (black) [[runaway slave]]. While Jim is running away from the prospect of losing his cushy house-servant position for the drudgery of a deep south plantation, Huck is also running away from a slavelike existence as prisoner of his own drunken father. Both are relieved upon their meeting on Jackson Island, with Jim just as happy to find that Huck is not a ghost as Huck is to find that Jim is not someone who will return him to Pap.

Both are relieved upon their meeting on Jackson Island, with Jim just as happy to find that Huck is not a ghost as Huck is to find that Jim is not someone who will return him to Pap. Each then takes a considerable risk in trusting the other, with Jim confessing his secret plan to run away (he'd be punished terribly if other whites found this out) and Huck choosing to aid a runaway slave (risk at least being called an "[[abolitionist]]" but also exposing himself to other, more severe penalties).
