Hello there, I’m Dred Scott. an African American slave.! I’m tired of it… But no need to be sad, I have a Great story to tell you!
I wanted my freedom, so i went to court, and Really fought for it. I lost. My heart fell, and I died inside.
The first trial began in 1847. I lost….Again. I thought i had bad luck… But… There was a new trial. The court found for me and my family and the court declaring me and my family Free I was extremely happy! But there was a problem.
This women, Eliza Emerson, Did Not agree. Emerson went to court and told the court she wanted to move to a higher court and also told them that she appealed the idea And…. the court listened to her. Me and my family were slaves again.
