Thurgood Marshall

Civil Rights Crusaders

Thurgood Marshall was an important pioneer in the civil rights movement both for his work as the lawyer who helped overturn school segregation and as the first African American on the Supreme Court. In this book, readers explore Marshall’s life through his historical accomplishments which are enhanced by photographs, insightful facts, and a helpful timeline. Marshall never let “separate but equal” stop him, and this book inspires readers to stand up for themselves, too.
