Source 3 – Excerpt
from Majority Opinion in Supreme Court case Dred
Scott v. Sanford
“. . . Can a negro, whose ancestors were
imported into this country, and sold as slaves, become a member of the
political community formed and brought into existence by the Constitution of
the United States, and as such become entitled to all the rights, and
privileges, and immunities, guaranteed by that instrument to the citizen? One
of which rights is the privilege of suing in a court of the United States in
the cases specified in the Constitution.
We think they [people of African ancestry] are
not [citizens], and that they are not included, and were not intended to be
included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can
therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides
for and secures to citizens of the United States.”
