Status Updates From Uncle Tom's Cabin

welp, the only good character has died. looks like all hell gonna break loose

There is a certain reaction I have been getting from people when I tell them that I am reading Uncle Tom's Cabin... maybe when I finish the book I will have a more complete thought on why that is. But it just seems like to me that some people believe that, despite how influential this book was, that it is a book that doesn't need to be read anymore

i can't lie this book is kicking my ass. like ya this sure was written for the 1850's American audience. Stowe is spoon feeding empathy to these goddamn people
