Black History featuring Uncle Tom’s Cabin Historic Site

Uncle Tom’s Cabin Historic Site takes its name from Harriet Beecher Stowe’s successful 1852 anti-slavery novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin, featuring a character named Tom (loosely based on Josiah Henson). Henson’s own story is told in his autobiography, first published in 1849. Learn more about Uncle Tom’s Cabin Historic Site https://www.heritagetrust.on.ca/en/pr…
