Stowe, a white woman, became motivated to write her most recognized work after the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. The novel, which was to become second only to sales of the Bible in the 19th century, attempted to illustrate the evils of the institution of slavery by contrasting the goodness of Uncle Tom, a slave, with the cruelty of his master Simon Legree. Defenders of slavery in South were angered by Stowe\u2019s account and deemed it a work of slander. If Stowe\u2019s detractors sought to persuade her to the supposed benevolence of the institution, they sure chose an odd way of displaying it when they sent a severed ear of a slave to the writer in a package.<\/p>\n
However well meaning Stowe was in writing \u201cUncle Tom\u2019s Cabin,\u201d the anti-slavery novel nevertheless created and popularized stereotypes of African-Americans such as mammies and pickaninnies – all of which I\u2019m sure the former mayor of Los Alamitos Dean Grose would claim to be unaware of!<\/p>\n
