Thurgood Marshall Speech
By Jacob
Hello, my
name is Thurgood Marshall. I was born on July 2, 1908. School was very important to me. I went to
Howard University in Washington D.C.
I helped get
equal rights for African Americans. I also did a court case called Black vs.
the Board of Education and I won that case. It was about black getting the same
rights as white people. I won most of my cases. I was the first African
American on the Supreme Court.
People
respected me in my later years and some people did not like me because they
wanted segregation. I had two wives my first was Vivian Buster Bary and my
second wife was Cecilia Cissy. I died in 1993. That is the speech about my life.
