Question

How did southern whites feel about harriet beecher stowes contribution the the abolitionist movement

Answer 1

The South felt bitter and denounced uncle Tom's cabin picture of the south, and in some states it was actually illegal to possess a copy of the book. In southern newspapers Harriet Beecher Stowe was regularly portrayed as a liar and a villain, and feelings about her book no doubt helped to harden feelings against the North.
