The Supreme Court's decision in the case declared that African Americans, whether slave or free, were not U.S. citizens and could not sue in federal court. The ruling further exacerbated tensions between the North and South leading up to the Civil War. Dred Scott died just a year after the Supreme Court decision, never gaining his freedom.

Was the dred Scott decision proslavery?
Yep. The Dred Scott decision was all about how Dred Scott went with his slave owner up to a "free state" and stayed long enough to, technically, be free. He turned this into a court case and took it to the Supreme Court. They decided that he could never become a citizen because of his race, and could, therefore, never sue in court. The court justices thought in theory that slavery was protected by the constitution. (which it is absolutely not!) I hope this clears it up :]
