In looking at the critical controversies in the story The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn I found that Christopher Looby's view clearly stated that Fielder and others like him took seeming already controversial story and twisted it up even more with their wide eyed ideas about what happen union between Jim and Huck. The idea that one could or would pose twentieth-century thoughts on something written back end 1885 is just crazy. It's like comparing apples and oranges. One example of this is the myth comparing black males to gay man, based on the fact the both have had to be closed off from the world because of who they are ,is not the same as to why. Black mans had on choice in that time blacks both male and female had on rights, therefore they seemed closed off from the world. Gay males had to hide because people are close minded and did not understand, therefore creating fear.

I'm having trouble detirmining whether you're responding to question 1 or 2. Your thoughts seem solid and they're easy to understand. I agree with what you've said.
I agree with what you are saying here and i think you have a great start. Use quotes from the book in your essay that compare black males to gay men.
I like your beginning statemant it is strong and right to the point. There are a view parts that didnt make sense. I dont know if it was grammer errors or its just me reading it wrong but other than that it was a good start. Keep going with the strong examples it really strengthens your position.
i completely agree to what you are saying you have some very strong points and since i read Fielder's essay it's easy to understand what you are saying about them twisting up the story
I agree with nikki, you're response is strong and some quotes would give readers a sense of validity in what you're saying.
I think you could talk more about "twisted it up" part. Since i didnt read Loobys essay i was a little confused about this.

I'm actually trying to do number 2 I was just using the high school thing to add more detail in what i was trying to state. I want to write about the controversy our group did with the christopher looby verus fiedler argument.
