Wow that kid is so black you can't even see a distinction between his face and his hair with the big lips. It almost looks like they are making fun of his character and a little racist. Hopefully that wasn't the intent.
the boy should have know that he was already out of the south..... They live in New England, so he has been out of the south for quite a while already! Maybe he was heading to canada or something......
A spin-off book was written (not by Alcott) called "March" which tells the story of what happened to Mr. March before, during, and after he fought in the war.
In this novel, Mr. March fails to save a Union soldier from drowning.
Also, Mr. March was a guest at a plantation house in this novel. He ran away when he heard that the plantation owner found out that March had taught a slave boy to read.
So, I'm thinking that maybe this scene is an adaptation of those events.

lol. The runaway slave boy's character design looks like it was based on blackface stereotypes. Great job guys!

Actually, I really like how the illustrator's creation of this animation, but I just find the dialogue lacking some spark.

No, not exactly.
