In the 1857 US Supreme Court case of Scott v. Stanford, the Court did allot more than simply making a decision on Dred Scott's individual case, the Court made decisions that caused strife among the nation. And, for the South, the case was decision that benefited them. Basically the Court ruled that under the US Constitution, slavery was legal and that Congress or any other political body in the US could restrict it and, that Black people, free Blacks and/or slaves could never be US citizens because they were Black.Clearly this decision helped to divide the nation.
