Answer: D.

George Fitzhugh most likely supported the argument that "Both slaves and plantation owners benefit from the benevolent institution of slavery." His convinced that slavery is important form of labor as to address the breakdown of northern economic system.

Meanwhile, those African American slaves have enjoyed the supportive and mutually beneficial system because they are free and happy.
