Frederick Douglass vehemently opposed the Dred Scott ruling, which denied citizenship and constitutional rights to African Americans. He viewed the Supreme Court's decision as a grave injustice that perpetuated the institution of slavery and undermined the ideals of freedom and equality. Douglass argued that the ruling was not only a setback for African Americans but also a betrayal of the principles upon which the nation was founded. He called for resistance and activism in the fight for civil rights and justice.
