A victim is one who suffers loss, injury or death due to something or someone.
A slaver or more accurately a slave trader and/or slave owner was not a victim. They were the perpetrators of the losses, injuries, suffering and death of black slaves due to acts of racial discrimination, abuse, rape, violence and murder to maintain control of human beings as their property. Black slaves were victims of exploitation for free labor and profit to support the economic development and expansion of the United States. They were not in a position to victimize 'slavers.'
Southern pro-slavery whites argued that slavery was a necessary economic institution that was vital to the Southern way of life. They believed that slavery was justified by the Bible and that it was beneficial for both slaves and slave owners. Additionally, they argued that African Americans were inferior and better off under the care of white slave owners.
Slavery and indentured servitude both require the person serving to be complete slave to their master. The only difference is, an indentured servant choses to be a slave to pay off a debt, and when their dept is fully paid they no longer have to be a slave. But a slave is forced to be a slave, and their master owns them.
Slave owners would almost always defend slavery. Slaves were their workers, after all, and they needed to produce food, tobacco, and cotton (especially in the King Cotton years). Some slave owners did have it just as bad as the slaves, or owned a few, and they actually were a bit nicer to those slaves and probably didn't care much for slavery. But a vast majority of slave owners defended slavery; hence the reason for the Civil War.
The abolition of the slave trade and the abolition of slavery represented two distinct but interconnected phases in the fight against the transatlantic slave system. The abolition of the slave trade focused on ending the transatlantic transportation of enslaved Africans to the Americas, driven by humanitarian efforts and economic shifts. Abolitionists argued that cutting off the supply of enslaved people was essential to dismantle the institution of slavery. In contrast, the abolition of slavery targeted the institution of slavery itself, seeking to grant freedom to those already enslaved. This phase was influenced by various factors, including moral and religious arguments, slave rebellions, and the growth of anti-slavery sentiment. The abolition of slavery required legislative action, such as the Emancipation Proclamation in the United States and the Slavery Abolition Act in the British Empire. Overall, while the abolition of the slave trade and the abolition of slavery were distinct movements, they were both integral to the broader struggle for freedom and human rights.
The paper in defense of slavery was written by George Fitzhugh, an American social theorist, in his book "Sociology for the South" published in 1854. Fitzhugh argued that slavery was a positive good for both enslaved people and slave owners, promoting paternalistic ideas of caring for and providing for enslaved individuals.

Resistance to slavery by both men and women took various forms, including escape attempts, rebellions, sabotage, and forming underground networks. Women often used covert tactics due to limited physical strength, such as poisoning slave owners or organizing slave revolts. Despite facing severe consequences, both men and women played active roles in challenging the institution of slavery.
