Abstract
This paper explores the problem of racism and other in the United States, its history and current Forms, and it does so through literature. Through literature we can see experience and gain exposure to the addressed problems. Through Novels such as Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, we see the impact of experience on racist beliefs and social values. We need to provide more voice to provide cultural awareness and we can do so through Literature. That said it is very difficult to write such a personal narrative. I will discuss the difficulties of writing such a narrative and where the difficulties come from. To conclude I will attempt to write a part of my own narrative.
