Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Published in 1852, the novel had a profound effect on attitudes toward African Americans and slavery in the United States, so much so in the latter case that the novel intensified the sectional conflict leading to the American Civil War.

Censorship history

The book was banned in the Southern States of the U. S. for negative depiction of slave-owners; banned in Czarist Russia; challenged by the NAACP for its racist portrayal of African Americans and the use of the word "Nigger"; banned in Waukegan, Illinois (1984) for undesirable racial language.
