6 mars 1857 - Dred Scott Decision
Description:
The Dred Scott Decision was a case where Dred Scott (a slave) and all other African Americans had no rights. The court had ruled that Scott was property and that his owner could take him anywhere he wanted (this made slavery legal everywhere). This caused much tension for four years until it exploded into the Civil War.Ajouté au bande de temps:
