Answer:
Harriet Beecher Stowe's book, Uncle Tom's Cabin, is believed to be about slave Josiah Henson.
Step-by-step explanation:
Josiah Henson was an American activist born in slavery. He was born on June 15, 1789 in Charles County, Maryland, and died in Dresden, Canada, on May 5, 1883. In 1830, to get freedom, he escaped to Upper Canada (now part of Ontario ) where he founded a school in Dawn primarily aimed at fugitive slaves, to teach them trades with which they could earn their own living in freedom.
Henson, a priest of the Methodist Church, traveled and gave lectures in many areas of the United States and Great Britain, and helped more than two hundred people to escape in what was called the Underground Railway.
Henson is considered the inspiration of Harriet Beecher Stowe for the creation of the protagonist of his novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin".
