The answer is C. You're welcome :)

Answer:

The correct answer is C. Harriet Beecher Stowe was an author who promoted abolitionism through her novel Uncle Tom's Cabin.

Explanation:

Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist and author of more than ten books, the most famous being "Uncle Tom's Cabin", which tells the story of life in slavery and was first published in the form of serial episodes from 1851 to 1852 in an abolitionist magazine, The National Era, edited by Gamaliel Bailey. Although Stowe had never set foot in the American South, she consistently published A Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin, a real work documenting the veracity of her description of the lives of the slaves in the original novel.
