The government action that denied citizenship and its protections to all Black people in the United States was the Supreme Court ruling against Dred Scott in **Dred Scott v. Sandford**. The Court's decision stated that African Americans, whether enslaved or free, could not be considered citizens and therefore had no standing to sue in federal court.
