“Uncle Tom’s Cabin” is known throughout the world as an engaging and powerful work that struck a nerve in American history (Kane). Stowe’s captivating novel reveals the complicated past and allows modern society to refer back to its words for guidance when dealing with contemporary issues. Regrettably, no matter how powerful the message may be, Stowe objectified a cast of people by teasing their emotions and tapping into their guilt- which is still seen in some of today’s communities. Social media, online blogs, and news reports all have posts that can reveal that some African American’s still criticize and guilt-trip white individuals for the actions of their ancestors. Their passion for the past is also greeted with some white supremacists who protest the integration of color and the rights of African Americans (in reference to the Ku Klux Klan, whose origins are from the Southern United States). The overall take home message from Uncle Tom’s Cabin is the rightful slander of slavery, it was just unjust how its message effected some, but not all, innocent
