The Plessy v. Ferguson and Dred Scott v. Sandford cases both limited the rights of African-Americans. Plessy v. Ferguson was a Supreme Court decision that upheld the concept of "separate but equal" facilities for African-Americans and whites, which led to the segregation of public facilities. Dred Scott v. Sandford was a Supreme Court decision that ruled that African-Americans were not U.S. citizens and therefore could not sue in federal court or have the right to citizenship. As for the other options, the Texas v. Johnson case involved the right to burn the American flag as a form of political protest, and the Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier case involved the censorship of school newspapers. The Marbury v. Madison case established the principle of judicial review, but did not directly address the rights of African-Americans. And, Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark Supreme Court case that actually expanded the rights of African-Americans by declaring segregation in schools as unconstitutional.
