Robert Purvis believed that the Dred Scott case highlighted the injustices and systemic racism that existed in the United States. He saw the decision as a stark reminder of the deep-rooted inequality faced by African Americans in the country and the urgent need for abolition of slavery and full equality for all individuals.
Two important decisions that came out of the Dred Scott v. Sandford case were that African Americans, whether enslaved or free, were not considered citizens and therefore could not sue in federal court, and that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional as it restricted slave owners' property rights.
Dred Scott
The Scott v. Sanford case, also known as the Dred Scott decision, was significant because it ruled that African Americans, whether free or enslaved, were not considered citizens and therefore could not sue in federal court. It also declared the Missouri Compromise unconstitutional, leading to heightened tensions over the issue of slavery and playing a significant role in the lead-up to the Civil War in the United States.
The Dred Scott case was decided in 1857.
