mar 6, 1857 - Dred Scott Decision

Description:

The Dred Scott Decision was a landmark Supreme Court case that ruled that African Americans were not citizens and that Congress couldn’t ban slavery in the territories. This decision outraged the North, increased tensions between the North and South, strengthened pro-slavery forces, and invalidated the Missiouri Compromise, all contributing to the start of the Civil War.
