I am not sure how a Christian defense of the south would work but from an Old testament point of view it is fairly simple. One of the 613 Mitzvot is the laws that deal with a Jewish Slave and another one of the Mitzvot is dealing with a gentile slave. The reason you have a Mitzvah dealing with each is that the laws are many. It is like we have a law dealing with a burnt offering. There are plenty of rules dealing with it but it all comes under one large category. In any case Slavery is allowed in the Torah. But one is not allowed to be inhumane to ones slaves.
