Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dred Scott decision was that living in a free state did not entitle an enslaved person to their freedom. Plessey v. Ferguson (1896) upheld the legality of racial segregation in America, condoning "separate but equal" treatment. It was eventually overturned by Brown v. Board of Education.
