I expect for you to be able to explain your thoughts and feelings in greater detail. I expect for you to understand the importance of being able to  prove convince , and  explain  the rationale behind any and every statement that you make. 

Supporting Details are reasons, facts, explanations, examples, comparisons, descriptions, anecdotes, testimony, steps, and illustrations. They are additional information that clearly identifies key items that offer the reader  clarity  and  insight  into your thought process. They fill the holes... they explain the who, what, when, where, why, and how. If you say you don't agree with the author, your supporting details explain why you don't agree. If you think slavery was an unconscionable act perpetrated by white people during that era, then your supporting details will clearly explain why you feel that way; give me examples of those "unconscionable acts", describe how it made the victims feel  and how it makes you feel, you will present facts; give testimony or even steps to prevent it or change the narrative. Even if you think slavery was justified for the time and was a "necessary evil", my expectations are still the same... you must back up your point of view with valid, convincing, and indisputable supporting details.
