Visited Gettysburg last week and started reading "Uncle Tom's Cabin" this morning. Tragic works, both. Actually, I'm shocked at how compassionate UTC is to the South and slaveholders. Much less so to the institution of slavery itself and the laws put into place to protect it. Guess she's practicing the old adage: hate the sin, love the sinner.
I'm sure there's a modern moral, here, but I'm not sure at what small crossroads town it'll all explode at.
