This is just a general comment on “Uncle Tom”. I recently read the book “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”. It was on my son’s summer reading list and I picked it up and read it. In the book, the Uncle Tom character is the strongest and best character in the book. He is totally committed to his Christian faith and sacrifices himself to help others. He is Christ-like in his humble attitude. The reason he has gotten a “bad rap” is because today’s culture cannot understand anyone who sees a divine purpose in their situation, no matter how humble or oppressed it may be.
