three ways slaves often resisted the authority of their owners was:
refusing to work
acting sick
sleeping late
self-mutilation
escaping

Running away or fleeing, feigning as though sick and sabotaging the property of the slave holders are some acts of resistance. Slavery existed in the southern states and it had taken a toll on the younger men who were made slaves and hired to any plantations or run errands for their owners. Slaves would flee to north but was not easy. If they were caught, they were given death penalty too.

Pretending to be sick is mostly practiced by women slaves. They were permitted by their owners in order to save their child bearing capacity.

Incapacitating or damaging the property of the slave holders is another form of resistance which annoyed their owners.

according to the quotation from booker t. washington's 1895 atlanta compromise speech.

in the great leap from slavery to freedom . . the masses of us are to live by the production of our hands . . we shall prosper . . as we learn to dignify and glorify common labor.

washington believed that  hard work had its own kind of dignity.
