<span>The white people of the country, as well as I, wish to see the colored people progress, and admire the progress they have already made, and want to see them continue along independent lines. There is, however, a great prejudice against colored people It will take one hundred years to eradicate this prejudice, and we must deal with it as of practical men. Segregation is not humiliating, but a benefit, and ought to be so regarded by you gentlemen. If your organization goes out and tells the colored people of the country that it is a humiliation, they will so regard it, but if you do not tell them so, and regard it rather as a benefit, they will regard it the same. The only harm that will come will be if you cause them to think it is a humiliation." </span>

Which was a provision of the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Scott v. Sandford case?
fgiga [73]

I believe the answer is: A. Enslaved people were property and did not have the right to file a suit.

At that time, Dred Scott wanted to sue the government for the mistreatment experienced by his family and demanded that both his wife and kids to be freed from slavery. The court ruled out that only citizens have the right to file a suit and see slaves as property that can never be a citizen.
