One Country, One Race.
White, James A.; Dowd, Alan
American Outlook, v5 n2 p21-24 Spr 2002
Discusses the 1857 Scott v. Sanford decision, which stated that blacks were "so far inferior that they had no rights which whites were bound to respect" and declared unconstitutional Congressional actions barring slavery in new states. Examines whether the social revolution and institutional reforms following the Civil War have had an impact on deep racial beliefs in the United States. (SM)
