Résumé :	This study is an attempt to investigate the issue of Slavery and Racism in Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by depicting the images of segregation and discrimination that marked the Southern States of America during the nineteenth century. First, a general overview of the movement of realism and American realism in particular is presented. The second part focuses on Mark Twain’s career, his realist works and the major themes in his brilliant novel Huckleberry Finn, followed by examples of some cruel racist attitudes towards slaves in the novel, which show that blacks suffered a lot and were treated harshly and inhumanly by white people. Then the work concentrates on Twain’s position towards Slavery and Racism and how he tried through using satire, symbolism, and religious hypocrisy of the white people to show his stand against this issue. The novel displays scenes and incidents that testify and serve as evidence of the cruelty of slavery that gives way to the brutality of racial discrimination against the Black community in the late nineteenth century United States. Discrimination is shown not only as cruel and destructive but also as unfair and inhumane through depicting the black young Jim as the kindest and the most humane character in the novel. As a conclusion, Mark Twain’s novel presents the reality of life of black people suffering from the attitudes and actions of the white men and expresses Twain’s views against Slavery and Racism in the racist southern societies of America.
