In class one day we talked about Uncle Tom in comparison to George and I found this to be a very interesting conversation. One thing we talked about was nobility, both of these characters in my mind are noble in different ways. Both of them are loyal to the people in their lives that they care about and the causes fight against, although Tom cannot do much for his cause because he is still a slave. Both George and Uncle Tom are honest in the most genuine sense of the word, however much it might hurt them. Both of these characters are submissive and culture often doesn't look too fondly on that.
