What was a point of contention between Frederick Douglas and Harriet Beecher Stowe?

The two abolitionists, Douglas and Stowe had a disagreement about the colonization of freed slaves. Stowe believed that a return to Africa offered former slaves the best way for them to reach their full potential, and there, not be impeded by white people. Douglas believed that freed slaves were now in the United States and that this was their home. Africa was too far removed in the middle of the 19th Century, to be considered as a haven for freed slaves.

Why did many freed African Americans live near the plantations where they used to be enslaved?

Some slaves were treated kindly by their owners and developed friendships with them, especially if they worked in their master's home, or were particularly handy as a field hand. Some slaves were afraid of what it would take to live outside of the community they knew. These slaves often stayed on as paid servants or at least free room and board, after they were freed. They thought it was better than trying to make it on their own
