Ok, so am doing an essay on the dred scott case and my question was
" Why was this case so important"
three cause/reason/answer were:
It was controversial
It ruled blacks were not citizens
finally it was a key factor in the civil war
what i need help on is giving more supporting details for the three
so far i got
A. CONTROVERSIAL
#1 IT LED TO THE SUPREME COURT
#2 AFFECTED THE SLAVERY ISSUE
#3 AFFECTED ALL BLACKS
B. RULED BLACKS WERE NOT CITIZENS
#1 BLACKS ONLY SLAVES
#2 NO RIGHTS SO COULDN'T FILE LAW SUITS
#3
C. KEY FACTOR IN CIVIL WAR
#1
#2
#3
all i need help on is giving more supporting details and causes and if you can think of other reasons (and three details backing them up) that would be REALLY REALLY helpful :)
