Was Harriet Beecher Stowe a Confederate?

Harriet Beecher Stowe was not affiliated with the Confederate movement. When Congress had to appease the South in order to get California admitted as free soil, they promised to appoint official slave-catchers to hunt down runaways and return them to their owners. This caused Harriet Beecher Stowe who promptly write 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' Second idea: Harriet Beecher Stowe had been an avid abolitionist before California became a state. There is no evidence that statehood for California in 1850 is related to Ms. Stowe's motives for writing Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was Harriet Beecher Stowe's sister in law who told her about the Fugitive Slave Act and that perhaps Harriet should use her writing skills to help end slavery.

In what year did Sojourner Truth meet Harriet Beecher Stowe?

Harriet Beecher Stowe is most famous as the author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" - which, although fictional, fairly accurately depicted many of the horrors and injustices of slavery. It also focused on how Christian love can overcome something as destructive as enslavement of fellow human beings. The book significantly enhanced support for the abolition of slavery in the USA; Stowe was an ardent abolitionist.Sojourner Truth [born Isabella ("Bell") Baumfree] was a contemporary of Stowe and also a prominent abolitionist. She was born into slavery in New York in 1797 (slavery was legal in New York then) but escaped with her youngest child in 1826. The state of New York began, in 1799, to legislate the abolition of slavery, although the process of emancipating those people enslaved in New York was not complete until July 4, 1827. Truth learned that her son Peter, then five years old, had been sold illegally to an owner in Alabama. With the help of the people who took her in when she walked off from her last "owner", she went to court and in 1828, after months of legal proceedings, she got back her son (who had been abused by those who were enslaving him). In 1843 she became a committed Christian - joining the Methodists. On June 1 of that year, she changed her name to Sojourner Truth. She told friends: "The Spirit calls me, and I must go" and left to make her way traveling and preaching about the abolition of slavery.Combined the white Stowe and the black Truth were prominent and influential figures in the abolition movement who significantly advanced the cause of abolition of slavery in the USA while simultaneously advancing the perspective that abolition was the Christian thing to do.
