Which of the following outcomes were part of the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Dred Scott case?Check all of the boxes that apply.

The Dred Scott decision ruled that enslaved people were property and that Congress could not prohibit slavery in U.S. territories. It also held that African Americans descended from enslaved people were not U.S. citizens and therefore could not bring a case in federal court. The ruling did not say that no enslaved person could ever be freed, and entering a free territory did not make Dred Scott free.
