One form of resistance was slowing down the picking of cotton. Slaves would intentionally go slower so that they could have an easier time in the fields. This was combatted by the Southern Plantation owners after a while by whipping the slaves severely during their first picks and then mandating that they had to pick at least as much cotton every time after.
Another form of resistance was to run away. The Underground Railroad helped thousands of slaves escape to the north and to freedom.

Answer:
Bolivar was able to free Venezuela from Spanish rule and abolish slavery.
Explanation:
Simon Bolivar was the most influential and famous among the leaders of the war for the independence of the Spanish colonies in America. He is the national hero of Venezuela. He began his military activity in 1810, being already quite a mature man. Bolivar joined Francisco de Miranda, who rebelled against the Spaniards, and soon became one of the most respected leaders of the rebels. Among the other leaders of the rebels, he stood out for his education and knowledge of military art. On July 5, 1811, rebels proclaimed Venezuela an independent republic. After the defeat of the republic by Spanish troops in 1812, Bolivar settled in New Granada (now Colombia), and at the beginning of 1813 the rebel army led by him entered the territory of Venezuela. In August 1813, his troops occupied the capital of Caracas and soon the Second Venezuelan Republic was created, headed by Bolivar. Venezuelan National Congress awarded Simon Bolivar the title of Liberator.
The countries that attended the conference were: Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Denmark, France, the German Empire, Italy, Netherlands, the Ottoman Empire, Portugal, the Russian Empire, Spain, Sweden-Norway, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America who had a special right to accept or decline the terms of the deal and the participation in the deal.
The effects of the conference were mostly in regards to the African Continent. They wanted to find a way to spread their empires and gain strength while not fighting each other, so they decided to cut Africa up into smaller pieces and divide it among themselves. The result was that 90% of African territory was taken by various European powers.
The northern states began working to end slavery, but the southern states needed slaves because they thought their economy would suffer without them.
