The novel appeared in book form and quickly became a major antislavery text. It helped shape public debate but also circulated racial stereotypes and displaced Black authors’ direct testimony in many readers’ understanding of slavery. Its influence should be understood alongside narratives by formerly enslaved people and Black abolitionist organizing.
