What personal tragedy prompted Harriet Beecher Stowe to write about the separation of black families under slavery?

In 1851, Stowe’s 18-month-old son died. The tragedy helped her understand the heartbreak slave mothers went through when their children were wrenched from their arms and sold. The Fugitive Slave Law and her own great loss led Stowe to write about the plight of slaves.
