Slave traders viewed enslaved individuals as property to be exploited for profit, believing in their inferiority. In stark contrast, abolitionists fought against slavery, advocating for the equality and dignity of all human beings. Abolitionists significantly contributed to ending the slave trade through awareness, political action, and support for escaped slaves.
