Why does the US Constitution hold a prejudice toward black people?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
When the US Constitution was drawn up, most of the black people in the country were slaves that had been brought over in chains or their descendants. As a result they had few rights and were certainly not full citizens or part of the governing class. In fact, they were generally considered to be an inferior race of people, with limited intelligence and incapable of living independently in any civilized way.
