Scott had been held as a slave in Missouri, but was taken to Illinois and Wisconsin territory where slavery was illegal. Because he had been taken into “free” territory, Scott believed he could no longer be enslaved and sued for his freedom. Many legal scholars consider the Dred Scott decision to be the Supreme Court’s worst ruling, some even refer to it as America’s worst self-inflicted wound. The decision was eventually overturned by passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution.

On this day in 1857, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the nation’s Constitution does not extend citizenship to people of color. In a 7 to 2 decision, the justices denied the protections of citizenship to Dred Scott.

Useless to all of *us*, but 🇺🇸 cops are extremely useful in serving the exact purpose for which they were created:
to protect "capital" & property, & by extension capital- & property-owners...
(& they were created back when ppl were considered
"property," so...) 😒

#13thAmendment
#Delaware had a chance to ratify the #13thAmendment on #ThisDayInHistory in 1865, but refused, meaning that #slavery was not criminalized until ratification was achieved in December. Remember that Delaware was a Union state but still a racist slave state, along with three others.
The US state of Mississippi refused to endorse the #13thAmendment abolishing #slavery over its lack of compensation for slave owners. The state only ratified it in 1995, and only certified that in 2013 on #ThisDayInHistory after a professor noticed it hadn't been filed correctly.

Today in #LaborHistory 1/1/1865: #13thAmendment signed, abolishing #slavery. #Prison slavery still permitted to profit corporations. Sadly, right-wing politicians & pundits recently defeated Prop 6 in #California which would have banned prison slave labor in their state.

13th Constitutional Amendment
January 31, 1865 - The U.S. House of Representatives passed (119-56) the 13th constitutional amendment which abolished slavery, and sent it to the states for ratification (three-quarters of the states would do so by the end of the year).

The #13thAmendment to the US Constitution passed in Congress on #ThisDayInHistory in 1865. It did not fully abolish #slavery, but took it out of private hands, passing responsibility to government, which continues to force prisoners to work for the benefit of major corporations.

Stephen Miller's mission is simple: He wants to deport 100 million people from the US.
Erase every colored face from America and those we can't erase, we minimize, demonize, ostracize and criminalize them until they can be utilized as they once were as brute labor and nothing else.
#13thAmendment
Slavery didn’t just “end” in 1865.
It was rerouted.
The punishment clause of the 13th Amendment wasn’t a footnote. It was infrastructure and it shaped everything that followed.
I unpacked that architecture in a new Substack essay.

The 13th Amendment is a loophole to perpetuate slavery. The police were created to capture escaped slaves. It's as simple as that. #acab #13thamendment #police #prison
US handwriting example alphabet circa 1860, in celebration of National Handwriting Day. upper and lower case letter Y both with descenders, that is the scripted letter dips below the line.

Regarding the Lash paper mistranslation of the Trumbull letter referencing early draft of Civil Rights legislation around 1866, specifically birthright citizenship:
There ain't no Y in Yankees. AI said so.
Following its successful ratification, Sec. of State #WilliamSeward announced on #ThisDayInHistory in 1865 that the #13thAmendment had been adopted. This is commonly understood as banning #slavery in the United States, but it merely shifts slavery to the #PrisonIndustrialComplex.

It's thoroughly "American". Read the #1776USDeclaration and #13thamendment and what British legal experts said about both at the time. Incoherent white supremacy cosplaying as law is all the US ever was.
Because #13thamendment this doesn't apply to anyone pretending to be a law enforcer.
Not in the USA under #13thamendment. Where a cop is legally a mid 19th century slave catcher under Dred Scott, just only working for the state not an individual.
Canada exists to defy, destroy, provide refuge from and outlast this evil ideology.
Stop thinking they are like us. They never were.
The USA has always been a place where law did support kidnapping. It was founded to preserve the "right" of replevin and trover in persons, which was ended in England decisively in 1772. It fought a civil war over this but only transferred that right to the state under #13thamendment.
#Calexit
It marked a legal victory born from generations of resistance — from freedom seekers, abolitionists, soldiers, and survivors who refused to be erased.
History doesn’t disappear. It echoes. INerasable.
