Huck learns that telling lies can be a good thing, but also a good thing. (He lied to the people looking for runaway slaves, to save Jim, but then the supposed king and duke lied for selfish and greedy reasons)
The Mississippi River is very significant in the novel. It symbolizes freedom, it is the route to freedom. But then, it is also life.
Racism- It is a bad thing. Mark Twain sort of mentions it. When Huck says, oh a black man was shot, or dead, i forget which, Aunt Sally goes, oh, good thing no one was shot or killed. So basically, she didn't consider the black man a person.
