Which of the following best explains the Dred Scott case and how it affected the debate about slavery? Dred Scott was a slave ow

ner who learned his slave was living as a free man in a Northern state. He argued that the slave should be returned to him to continue working on his plantation. He won his case which caused a revolt between citizens in the North and South. Dred Scott was a slave who argued that because his owner brought him into a free area, he should be free. The Supreme Court ruled he was "property," and citizens could bring property wherever they chose. This decision enraged anti-slavery activists. Dred Scott was a white abolitionist who murdered a group of pro-slavery men. He was tried in court in a Southern state and found guilty. Citizens in Northern states argued for his release, and the resulting battles between the states led to "Bleeding Kansas." Dred Scott was a slave arrested in Boston and forced to board a ship back to his owner in Virginia. Boston citizens purchased his freedom in a Northern court, and he was allowed to remain in Boston as a free citizen. This decision enraged slave owners in the South.

Identify the congressional power that allows the federal government to prosecute people for possession of marijuana in states wh
Sindrei [870]
The Congressional power is known as the Supremacy clause.

In Article 6 Clause 2 of the United States Constitution, it states that federal laws are the supreme laws of the land. This means federal laws trump all other laws in the United States. So if the federal government wants to prosecute people for the possession of marijuana in a state where it is legal, they can legally do so thanks to the supremacy clause.

How did Westward Expansion contribute to tension between North and South?
Vlad [161]

Explanation:

Development has contributed to financial prosperity and has ignited the obvious fate, and it has also led to sectional conflict over slaves. There were a lot of segregationists in the north whereas the south was predominantly pro-slavery, which created sectional friction since each person needs to see both values spread to the west.
