Where she grew up, in Cincinnati, she met former slaves, and even witnessed slaves while in Kentucky.

She was born June 14, 1811 in Litchfield, Connecticut, and was one of thirteen who was born to religious leader Lyman Beecher. Her mother, Roxanna Beecher, died when Harriet was young. Because of her father being a religious leader, she grew up with a love for religion.

# data[].attributes.body
She met former and fugitive enslaved people in Kentucky. She wanted to make a better life for former slaves, so she employed some former slaves. Harriet Beecher Stowe, when she learned that one person she employed was a runaway slave, she helped them get to Canada.

# data[].attributes.body
She wanted people to know how the slaves were being treated, and how unfair it was. She also wanted the world to know how women and religion played a role in everything. Back then, women were looked down on, they were supposed to not have any political views, they thought that they should worry about their household and maybe what was going on in their community. She also wanted people to understand how Christians should think, how they should love everyone, and should not tolerate slavery.

Harriet Beecher Stowe had to write A Key To Uncle Tom's Cabin  Because after it was released, because some people were taking the context of the book the wrong way.

# data[].attributes.body
The three important themes shown in the book are
1: The necessity of ending slavery
2: showing women as equal to men
3: The importance if her religion

# data[].attributes.body
The three important themes are Anti-Slavery, women's roles, and religion. She wanted people to know about how all these things were playing a role in how people thought and how they should be thinking. She uses these themes to try to get a message out to the reader. To let them know that how slaves and women were being treated is wrong, and that as being mainly Christian, they should try to change their ways and open their eyes.

This book is important because it is history from what America was like. It shows how slavery and women's rights were changing their lives. The people who owned the slave thought it was right to own these slaves and thought men were better than women and deserved more rights. It also got people to realize that slavery was wrong and that women shouldn't have more rights than men. Also, some people may have been against the book because they still wanted slaves. The slaves helped America have workers which didn't cost much. They needed them for the food that they plant.

# data[].attributes.body
Throughout her childhood, slavery was something that she saw former slaves and heard their stories while she lived in Cincinnati. Since she was not able to get the point across herself, she wrote the book and got her male relatives to show off the book because at that time not many people listened to women.

UTC has a lot of importance today because many people have altogether forgot about how it was back when slavery in America was a current thing, and although a lot of people want to forget how it was back then, we need to look back and learn from our mistakes so that it doesn't happen again.

On September 18, 1850, the US Congress passed the compromise of 1850. It was intended to address the concerns of slave holding and free states, though many historians disagree whether this helped or not.

Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote this novel to get three main points off. These were to stop slavery, to show women's roles, and to show Christian love. She helped stop slavery and even gave aid to a runaway slave even though that was illegal at the time because of the Fugitive slave act. She wanted to show that women were equal to men and that they should have better roles than just to take care of the house.

The positives of Uncle Tom's cabin is that it showed how slaves were being treated, and it also showed the reality of what was happening. Most people had thought in some twisted way that slavery was alright, because everyone was doing it, so it had to be alright, right? However, Harriet Beecher Stowe opened America's eyes through this book. Some negatives might be that some people felt attacked by this book. Some people may have thought that it was improper, some might have thought that it was offensive as well.

After the fugitive slave act, anyone could be taken from the street and accused of slavery, to be taken to federally appointed commissioner who would be payed $5 to every fugitive released and $10 for every fugitive taken to the south.

When the book was first wrote, people were taking the book the wrong way, she was not getting the correct message across to some people, so Harriet Beecher Stowe had to write A Key To Uncle Tom's Cabin a year later.

The only negative impact that I can perceive from this book is the Civil War. Like President Lincoln said, she was "the little old lady that started this war." Her book took many by surprise, about the horrid way that the slaves and African-Americans were treated. Many people thought the book was fake. Like we discussed, books were the only way to get knowledge around. This book rocked America to its core.

If someone refused to help slave catchers or the authority find runaway slaves they could face up to 1000 dollar fines and 6 months in jail.

# data[].attributes.body
The book was well liked and perceived, the author, however, was not. Back during the time of this book women were not treated with respect and when she went to go describe her book the men would not take her seriously. And so her husband had to take it in and explain it for her.

# data[].attributes.body
A positive of the book was that people who didn't understand slavery could really see how the slaves were actually treated, and that what was happening to them wasn't right. A negative about the book was that people were very offended by how offensive, but true, the book was written.

One personal experience she had was when she visited the South. She noticed the extreme ways that the slaves were treated and the atmosphere of those who tried to end slavery. She wrote "The Mayflower" which then lead to her proving she should pursue a literary career.

The Fugitive Slave Act stated that it was illegal to give aid to a runaway slave. If you gave aid to a runaway slave you could be fined up to $1000 and/or jailed for six months. Also, if you refused to help a slave catcher, you could also get fines or jail time. Also, anyone could be accused of being a fugitive slave and dragged out of the streets

When Harriet wrote the book, she wanted to tell everyone how she felt about slavery, but as a woman, she could not just preach what she wanted, so she wrote the book to show people how she felt and wanted to show the people who wanted slavery how bad it was.

Harriet Beecher stowe was trying to convey three main themes through her book Uncle Tom's Cabin. Those themes were
1. Anti-slavery
2. Women's Roles
3. Religion

# data[].attributes.body
The book had many positives, such as it was a way to get across Harriet's message about slavery, showing how bad it was and that it should be stopped. The negatives about the book is when it was released, some people took the book offensively before Harriet wrote, A Key To Uncle Tom's Cabin

# data[].attributes.body
Her main goal is to get people to know what was happening at that time. Many people may have thought that slavery wasn't bad and to say that women should be able to do things that men could. She also had a lot of religion because she wanted to show how religion could have gotten the slaves past the harsh times. This is because with the religion, the religion told them that there was going to be a better time after being slaves. This is what kept them going.

UTC is important today, because it has to do with our country's history. It symbolizes how our country got freedom completely and how the fight for independence began. It also helps us to know exactly how things were like back then and how hard things could be.
