Chesnutt’s “The Passing of Grandison” is the perfect tale of a trickster patiently waiting for the right time to complete his ultimate act of deceit. A trickster is defined as a person who cheats or deceives people (deception by wearing a false mask of character). Not only is Chesnutt’s story full of tricksters such as Dick and Grandison but Chesnutt himself acts as a trickster in how he writes this story.

Starting with the early African-American known as the Sambo. This notion was built around African-Americans being "happy slaves" and masters. The Sambo was seen as not being a hard-working, which translated to being lazy, which means that they needed a lot of guidance from their masters in order to get task done.
