Thomas Jefferson famously said about the law and Constitutional guarantees, I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.
Explain Jeffersons reasoning and how it is borne out by the US Supreme Courts cases of Dred Scott v. Sandford; the Thirteenth Amendment; Plessy v. Ferguson; and Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas. As well as the development of American society during this time period.
