"..no one supposes that a slave is a citizen of the State or of the United States. If, therefore, the acts done by his owner did not make them free persons, he is still a slave, and certainly incapable of suing in the character of a citizen." DRED SCOTT, PLAINTIFF IN ERROR Mr. JOHN F. A. SANDFORD. December Term, 1856 - Mr. Chief Justice Taney

Lynne M. Jackson

In the Dred Scott case of 1857

the Supreme Court said:

"... a negro, whose ancestors were imported into this country, and sold as slaves...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."

In the Roe v. Wade case of 1973 the Supreme Court said:

"The word 'person,' as used in the Fourteenth Amendment, does not include the unborn.... [T]he unborn have never been recognized in the law as persons in the whole sense."
