Following events occurred from as a result of the Dredd Scott decision

  • Slavery,
  • Dredd Scott was bought by a new master and immediately freed along with his family.

Dredd Scott v. Sandford,[a] 60 U.S. (19 How.) 393 (1857), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court during which the Court held that the us Constitution wasn't meant to include American citizenship for people of African descent, regardless of whether or not they were enslaved or free, so the rights and privileges that the Constitution confers upon Americans couldn't apply to them. The Supreme Court's decision has been widely denounced, both for the way overtly racist the selection was and its crucial role within the beginning of the American war four years later. Legal scholar Bernard Schwartz stated that "stands on top in any list of the worst Supreme Court decisions". Judge Charles Evans Hughes called it the Court's "greatest self-inflicted wound". Historian Junius P. Rodriguez stated that "universally condemned because the U.S. Supreme Court's worst decision ever." Historian David Thomas Konig mentioned it as "unquestionably, our court's worst decision ever." this choice was made on the case Dredd Scott, an enslaved blackamoor whose owners had taken him from Missouri, a slave-holding state, into Illinois and also the Wisconsin Territory, where slavery was illegal. When one among his owners later brought him back to the Missouri, Scott sued in court for his freedom and legal claimed it because he had been taken into "free" U.S. territory, he had automatically been freed and was legally not a slave. Scott also sued them first in Missouri state court, which ruled that he was still a slave under its law. He then sued in U.S. tribunal, which ruled against him by mentioning that it had to use Missouri law to the case. He then appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.

This marked as one of the Historical cases ever made and memorable for Africans.

Which act is an example of following the rule of law?
Kaylis [27]

Answer: driving the speed limit

Explanation:

Following the rule of law refers to obeying an actual law that is implemented in a society. Speed limits are actual laws so when we drive the speed limit, we are following the rule of law.

The other options are not correct because they are not based on actual laws. They are simply based on the civil and environmental responsibilities. There is no law for instance, that forces us to vote or to recycle or to get a driver's license (unless you are driving in which case this is a law).

Name 4 ways Southern Whites prevented African Americans from voting?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

1) Violence: Blacks who tried to vote were threatened, beaten, and killed.  Their families were also harmed.  Sometimes their homes were burned down.  Often, they lost their jobs or were thrown off their farms.

Whites used violence to intimidate blacks and prevent them from even thinking about voting. Still, some blacks passed the requirements to vote and took the risk. Some whites used violence to punish those “uppity” people and show other blacks what would happen to them if they voted.

2) Literacy tests: Today almost all adults can read.  One hundred years ago, however, many people – black and white – were illiterate.  Most illiterate people were not allowed to vote. A few were allowed if they could understand what was read to them.  White officials usually claimed that whites could understand what was read. They said blacks could not understand it, even when they clearly could.

3) Property tests: In the South one hundred years ago, many states allowed only property owners to vote.  Many blacks and whites had no property and could not vote.

4) Grandfather clause: People who could not read and owned no property were allowed to vote if their fathers or grandfathers had voted before 1867.  Of course, practically no blacks could vote before 1867, so the grandfather clause worked only for whites.

Explanation: From about 1900 to 1965, most African Americans were not allowed to vote in the South. This was especially true in the Deep South: Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina.

White people in power used many methods to keep African Americans from voting.  Some of these methods also prevented poor white people from voting.
