fWotD Episode 2913: Black Slave's Cry to Heaven Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 26 April 2025, is Black Slave's Cry to Heaven.Black Slave's Cry to Heaven (traditional Chinese: 黑奴籲天錄; simplified Chinese: 黑奴吁天录; pinyin: Hēinú Yūtiān Lù) was a 1907 stage play performed by the Spring Willow Society, a Chinese student troupe, in Tokyo, Japan. Adapted by Zeng Xiaogu from a translation of Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, the play focused on the experiences and eventual escape of two slaves, Eliza and George.Modified to allegorically call attention to the experiences of Chinese migrants in the United States, Black Slave's Cry to Heaven was innovative in its use of spoken dialogue and realistic set designs. Performed twice at the Hongō-za Theatre, the show was well received by critics and audiences. Although its script has been lost, the play has inspired subsequent works. Due to its technical innovations and nationalist themes, Black Slave's Cry to Heaven has been canonized as the first modern, Western-style Chinese drama.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:14 UTC on Saturday, 26 April 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Black Slave's Cry to Heaven on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Matthew.

Sitting high above the small community of Ripley, Ohio, a lantern shone in the front window of a small, red brick home at night. It was a signal to slaves just across the Ohio River. Anyone fleeing bondage could look to Reverend John Rankin’s home for hope. To the slaveholders they fled from, Rankin’s activities as a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad invoked rage. Mobs often pelted Rankin with eggs and rocks, bounties were placed on his head, and midnight assassins lurked in the darkness, waiting for the right opportunity to take out the “Father of Abolitionism.” Despite frequent threats, he remained committed to the freedom of his fellow man.Today’s guest is Caleb Franz, author of The Conductor: The Story of Rev. John Rankin, Abolitionism's Essential Founding Father, we look at the story of the man who served as a George Washington–type figure to the antislavery movement. Rankin’s leadership brought unity and clarity to the often factious abolitionists of the nineteenth century. William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and countless others found inspiration in his teachings. He also presented abolitionism as a moderate movement, helping to make it palpable to Southern centrists who considered most abolitionists Yankee radicals who wanted to watch America descend into a Haitian-style race war.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your calendar never lies about your priorities. In this thought-provoking episode, we tackle the uncomfortable truth that many of us claim God as our first priority while our daily time allocation tells a different story. Think about it—we intuitively know that spending time with someone is the clearest indicator of genuine care. Children understand this instinctively. Yet when it comes to our relationship with God, we often expect spiritual depth without investing regular, meaningful time. The results are predictably shallow.Drawing from 1 Timothy 2, we explore how prayer transforms not just those we pray for, but ourselves in the process. There's something counterintuitive yet powerful about praying for leaders we disagree with and those who've wronged us. The scripture's call to "lead tranquil and quiet lives" offers a refreshing alternative to the anxiety-producing habit of inserting ourselves into matters that don't require our attention.We also challenge the false dichotomy between scientific inquiry and Christian faith. History reveals countless scientists whose deeper exploration of our universe's complexity led them closer to, not further from, belief in a Creator. The intricate design evident in creation "bears the signature of its Creator graven in its works."The episode concludes with timeless wisdom from Harriet Beecher Stowe, written nearly a decade before the Civil War but eerily relevant today: our nation won't be saved by partisan alignment but "by repentance, justice and mercy." Take a moment today to honestly assess where your time goes. Does it align with what you claim to value most? The answer might be uncomfortable, but it's the first step toward authentic spiritual growth.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

Susanna Ashton; Recorded January 23, 2025 - In December of 1850, a faculty wife in Brunswick, Maine, named Harriet Beecher Stowe hid a fugitive enslaved man in her house. While John Andrew Jackson stayed for only one night, he made a lasting impression: drawing from this experience, Stowe began to write Uncle Tom's Cabin, one of the most influential books in American history and the novel that helped inspire the overthrow of slavery in the United States. Author Susanna talked about her book A Plausible Man, a historical detective story of Jackson's remarkable flight from slavery to freedom, his quest to liberate his enslaved family, and his emergence as an international advocate for abolition. Recorded January 23, 2025

We are going to chart a course into the turbulent waters of American history and have a conversation as we sail through the life of John Andrew Jackson, an escaped slave whose story is as riveting as it is pivotal. Dr. Susanna Ashton, a professor at Clemson University and the author of A Plausible Man, takes us on a journey that begins with Jackson's harrowing escape from slavery in South Carolina and his unexpected encounter with Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'. With wit and insight, Dr. Ashton reveals how Jackson's narrative, filled with clever banter and sharp observations, not only inspired Stowe's famous novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, but also played an essential role in the abolitionist movement. The conversation flows exploring themes of resilience, identity, and the power of storytelling, all while shedding light on the often-overlooked characters who shaped the fight against slavery. The episode serves as a powerful reminder of the human spirit's capacity to endure and inspire change.[00:00] The Fugitive Slave Ad[00:38] Harriet Beecher Stowe's Encounter[02:04] Introduction to St. Louis in Tune[04:13] Interview with Dr. Susanna Ashton[05:50] John Andrew Jackson's Story[17:22] Jackson's Life in England and Beyond[21:50] The Impact of Uncle Tom's Cabin[30:17] Research and Writing Process[32:08] Life's Unexpected Turns[32:28] Llama Adventures During COVID[33:14] The Canadian Census Mystery[37:13] Jackson's Literacy Journey[42:02] Uncovering Family Roots[44:27] Upcoming Speaking Events[45:11] The Importance of Primary Sources[48:52] Final Thoughts and ReflectionsTakeaways: Dr. Susanna Ashton dives deep into the life of John Andrew Jackson, revealing his journey from slavery to becoming an influential figure behind Uncle Tom's Cabin.

Happy New Year (and Happy Reading) from The Daily Poem!Born in Amherst, Massachusetts, to academic Calvinist parents, poet, author, and Native American rights activist Helen Hunt Jackson (born Helen Maria Fiske) was orphaned as a child and raised by her aunt. Jackson was sent to private schools and formed a lasting childhood friendship with Emily Dickinson. At the age of 21, Jackson married Lieutenant Edward Bissell Hunt and together they had two sons. Jackson began writing poetry only after the early deaths of her husband and both sons.Jackson published five collections of poetry, including Verses (1870) and Easter Bells (1884), as well as children's literature and travel books, often using the pseudonyms “H.H.,” “Rip van Winkle,” or “Saxe Holm.” Frequently in poor health, she moved to Colorado on her physician's recommendation and married William Sharpless Jackson there in 1875.Moved by an 1879 speech given by Chief Standing Bear, Jackson wrote A Century of Dishonor (1881), an exposé of the rampant crimes against Native Americans, which led to the founding of the Indian Rights Association. In 1884 she published Ramona, a fictionalized account of the plight of Southern California's dispossessed Mission Indians, inspired by Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin.Jackson was inducted into the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame in 1985.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Send me a note!Podcast Notes:

The Torah portion of Va'yeshev, which covers the story of Joseph's betrayal by his brothers and his subsequent enslavement in Egypt, shares thematic parallels with the depiction of slavery in Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe. In Va'yeshev, Joseph is sold into slavery by his brothers, who are motivated by jealousy and resentment, leading to his suffering and displacement. Similarly, in Uncle Tom's Cabin, African slaves, like Uncle Tom, are subjected to inhumane treatment, betrayal, and exploitation by those who see them as property rather than people. Both narratives highlight the deep injustices of slavery, emphasizing the emotional and physical suffering endured by the enslaved. However, while Joseph's eventual rise to power in Egypt serves as a form of divine justice, Uncle Tom's Cabin underscores the moral degradation of slavery and calls for its abolition, reflecting a more direct critique of the system. In both texts, the individuals who suffer under slavery demonstrate resilience and faith, yet the narratives also show the profound moral and social costs of such systems.

Victoria C. Woodhull might be one of the most interesting women we've covered on the pod so far! Her story includes not one, but THREE rags-to-riches climbs, a flourishing career as a medium & clairvoyant, and she was the first woman to not only run for President of the United States, but she also the first woman to own a Wall Street Firm AND the first woman EVER to testify before Congress. As you might suspect, her story is also filled with drama and not JUST within the gossip column she published. Let's just say that Harriet Beecher Stowe called her a “vile jailbird” and “impudent witch”. What did Victoria do to earn such vile hatred from the Stowe family?

Episode: 1206 Harriet Beecher Stowe: "No talent, only genius."  Today, a woman turns slavery from theoretical wrong into personal evil.

Today, the What's Next? team takes us on a tour at the Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Center with the Director of Community Engagement Saladin Allah. Allah is the third-great grandson of underground railroad Freedom Seeker Josiah Henson whom Harriet Beecher Stowe used as the primary narrative for her famous 19th Century novel “Uncle Tom's Cabin.” He takes Thomas O'Neil-White and Jay Moran around the center and provides insight into the center and more.

Caleb Franz is the host of Profiles in Liberty and author of "The Conductor: The Story of Rev. John Rankin, Abolitionism's Essential Founding Father," and he joins us to discuss Rankin's Presbyterian upbringing in the South, his passionate opposition to slavery, and the influential letters he wrote to his brother, which sparked a broader public dissection of the institution of slavery. These writings, akin to 'The Federalist Papers' of abolitionism, played a crucial role in shaping the abolitionist movement, impacting figures like William Lloyd Garrison and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Franz also explores Rankin's challenges, including physical threats and societal opposition, underscoring his importance as a unifying figure whose efforts transcended abolitionism. The episode delves into Franz's book's origin and evolution, Rankin's legacy's impact, and the importance of acknowledging the contributions of figures lost to history.

Lots of reflecting on this one since my surgery.  Truthfully, before my surgery too.  This quote from long ago from Harriet Beecher Stowe (from 1852), "Caring for others is the highest expression of humanity."  I have seen this all throughout my life, but it became a very bright light shining in my face during my recent surgery episode, that got me thinking about this a bit deeper.  The people that helped me in the hospital, the entire staff (at least the ones that dealt with me), reminded me about this important life skill.  The friends I have connected with over my life - so many reached out to me with text messages and social media - with their well wishes, happy birthday messages and prayers.... wow.. .what a powerful difference they made. All of us can make that difference with the people in our lives and those that we meet along the way.  It's our choice.  Just know this - the world needs it now more than ever before - people caring and helping others.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  

Confidence Hack #29: trusting your intuition can lead to history-defining moments... Intuition. You've probably asked yourself, “Why didn't I follow my intuition on that?” Or, “Man, why didn't I trust my gut?” Before you say, “Oh David, intuition is a bunch of mumbo jumbo...” consider this. Several studies have shown that intuition is real. The brain uses past experiences and environmental cues to make decisions faster than we can sometimes comprehend. In today's episode, I cover the powerful example of intuition with the story of Harriet Beecher Stowe, one of American history's most incredible people. Stowe's book, ‘Uncle Tom's Cabin,' would become a catalyst for the Christian argument against the South's inhumane practice of slavery. She followed her gut, and the feeling led her to write one of the defining books of the American story. So, as you listen today, gain confidence in knowing that that gut feeling, your intuition, is telling you to pay attention, and more times than not, it's got something great to say! Hey! If you love this show, share it with family and friends! It's the best way to help get this info into the hands of people who want to grow and become the most CONFIDENT LEADERS they can be!

(Swallowed Alive In Great Dismal Swamp) *** A weeping man called the police to tearfully apologize for murdering his victims… but that didn't stop him from continuing to kill again and again. (The Weepy Voiced Killer) *** In Hindu culture, it is believed if certain post-death rituals are not conducted on those who have passed away, the deceased's family would not prosper and there would be misfortunes aplenty. One family in Bhutan had to learn that the hard way. (The Stoning Ghost of Sombek) *** An apparent incident involving a “gigantic cigar-shaped UFO” somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean in May 1963 wasn't reported for almost 20 years, when a witness to the event finally came forward through a written letter of the incident. (The Atlantic UFO of 1963) *** In a beautiful little town in North Wales, children ran through the graveyard, searching for little men with big eyes and long ears. They were searching for strange fairy folk – the ‘brownies' of Bangor. (The Brownies of Bangor) *** Serial killer Ed Gein was caught and arrested for his crimes in November of 1957 – but that didn't mean Gein's neighbors would see the end of his influence on their lives. (Selling Ed Gein) *** Four people take a trip to France and stay at hotel that appeared too good to be true – because it was.

What are women made for and what are they capable of? What makes them valuable? What is “women's work”? One of the most culturally influential women in American history used her life's work to answer these questions and affirm women in both society and the home—yet many people have never even heard of her. Sarah Josepha Hale was a mother, writer, activist, and editor of the popular nineteenth-century women's magazine Godey's Lady's Book. Her work contributed to a robust and holistic view of womanhood that validated women as image bearers, dignified their many spheres of work—both domestic and professional—and advocated for their access to education and advancement. Take a listen to this best-of episode with journalist Melanie Kirkpatrick and be encouraged by this remarkable woman from American history.     The Strong Women Podcast 81.
