Although Jim exhibits many racial stereotypes, his persona was quite progressive for the time.

<h3>What are stereotypes?</h3>
  • A stereotype is a fixed, overly generalized belief about a certain group or class of people that are used in social psychology.
  • Stereotyping implies that an individual possesses a wide range of traits and skills that we presume all members of that group possess.
  • Researchers have discovered that there are misconceptions about certain racial, cultural, or ethnic groupings.
  • While the phrases race, culture, and ethnic groupings have various definitions, for this discussion, we will assume that they all refer to approximately the same thing.

<h3>Persona of Jim</h3>
  • Civil War wounds were still quite painful. Therefore, even though Jim exhibits many racial stereotypes, for the period, his character was quite forward-thinking.
  • The only functioning family in the novel is Jim's. He deeply misses his wife and children.
  • Jim has a sense of the natural world, like on Jackson's Island that Huck does not have.
  • Jim demonstrates a sense of devotion and friendship that is uncommon among white people.

Hence, despite the numerous racial stereotypes Jim displays, his persona was extremely progressive for the time.
