Answer 2

Stowe wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin because she was influenced by the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly was writeen in 1852, two years after the passing of the Fugitive Slave Act that demanded that all fugitive slaves captured in the free states must be returned to their masters in the South. It also made assisting those fugitive slaves a crime.

Stowe wrote Uncle Tom as a sermon intended to convince its Christian audience to destroy slavery as an institution, so it was an anti-slavery argument in response to the Fugitive Slave Act.
