According to Thomas Dew and William Harper, proponents of slavery argued that slavery benefited slaves by providing them with the necessities of life, such as food, clothing, and shelter. They also believed that slavery offered slaves protection and care that they might not have had otherwise. Additionally, they saw slavery as a way for slaves to be introduced to Christianity and civilization.
