Metaphors In Huckleberry Finn

What is your opinion about people being racist? By using the reading metaphor M,W,SGD. I will say my opinion using mirrors to talk about what I think with the book “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” windows to show what I think about the larger world and lives of others by using “Anger is a Gift,” then sliding glass doors to enter the world and change my potential actions with using the videos “A Conversation About Growing Up Black” and “A Conversation With Latinos on Race.” The metaphor mirrors, windows, sliding glass doors can help you understand your opinion about yourself and the world around you. Using mirrors in the book ”Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” by Mark Twain I will talk about what the book tells me about myself. My opinion will

The windows part of the metaphor is to help you by “offering views of worlds that may be real or imagined, familiar or strange,”(Rudine Sims Bishop) and show someone the lives of others. In “Anger is a Gift” there are a lot of racist cops and protests about people being racist. Windows helped me understand that not just in the book world there is a lot outside of it. Other information and the quotes “Stop killing us,”(456) and “It wasn't the first time Moss had heard the pop of a gunshot. Nor was it the first time he'd heard the sickening sound of air leaving someone's body. The sound meant the worst,”(275) helped me understand that not everyone has it the same as white people. In the book, Esperanza’s parents are white, have money, and a good home but Moss’s family which is black lives more in a ghetto neighborhood because there isn’t the best income; therefore, that proves my point that in the book, and in the world that whites usually have better housing than the different skin-colored. From the quotes my opinion is that people with a different skin color should be treated better, not judged, or not be used for gun practice; like don’t look at the color of their skin and be like I won’t trust them. Then not stereotyping people but actually getting to know them and their lives before you accuse them. I saw in real life and not innocent people

I will apply the sliding glass doors(sgd) part of the metaphor, “readers have only to walk through in imagination to become part of whatever world has been created and recreated by the author,” to how I express my opinion. The 2 videos show the perspectives of black and latino people and how their life was having a different skin color and sgd showed me that I can enter the world and understand the lives of different colored people. The first video stated “I feel like I’m there to fill a quota when we are in a so-called free society,” and “I would actually get to the point where I would start counting how many times a woman wound clutch her bag.” Then the second video was the point of view of latinos with people asking what their race is or asking why they wear or speak a certain way when they are in America. Those quotes and the second video helped me kind of enter their world of living and change my understanding and actions. Now seeing their world I can not be afraid while passing someone with a different skin color. Also how I respond to others doing something weird because they see someone with a different skin color but I would say if I was in the ghetto or some sketchy place then I would be a little scared. I would also not ask random questions that would be offensive or if I wouldn’t like someone
