-> -> choose the event that each quote would mostly likely be related to. <- <-
\i dont care what those justices in washington say, slavery has always been and will always be against the law in the state of new hampshire. they will not force slavery on us.\
○ missouri compromise
○ nullification crisis
○ dred scott case
○ election of 1860
The Dred Scott Case (1857) involved a slave named Dred Scott who sued for his freedom. The Supreme Court ruled that African - Americans (enslaved or free) were not U.S. citizens and that Congress had no power to prohibit slavery in federal territories. This decision was a major setback for the anti - slavery movement. The quote "I don't care what those Justices in Washington say..." directly references a Supreme Court (Justices in Washington) decision related to slavery, which aligns with the Dred Scott Case.
The Missouri Compromise (1820) was about the balance of free and slave states. The Nullification Crisis (1832 - 1833) was about a state (South Carolina) attempting to nullify a federal tariff. The Election of 1860 was a political event that led to secession but not directly a Supreme Court decision on slavery in the way the quote describes.
