BLACK HISTORY MONTH TRIBUTE
|
This week's tribute goes to Thurgood Marshall. An American lawyer, Marshall was born on July 2nd, 1908 in Baltimore, Maryland. He attended Lincoln University where he sat in the classroom along with other future Black leaders. In 1930, Marshall applied to the University of Maryland law school but was denied admission due to the fact that he was black. Instead, Marshall was admitted into Howard University Law School. After law school, he began to work for the NAACP under the influence of Charles Hamilton Houston. After successfully winning many cases over the years, Thurgood Marshall became the first African American member of the U.S. Supreme Court in October 1967. It is because of him we can. Thank you, Thurgood Marshall, for paving the way and striving Black Excellence
