Question- What was Thurgood Marshalls impact on the Civil Rights Movement?

Answer- When Marshalls brilliant courtroom strategy to desegregate American schools

culminated in the glorious Brown decision of 1954, many black activists thought the fight
had been won. The Montgomery bus boycott came along a year and a half after Brown,
and not only birthed the leadership of Martin Luther King Jr. but also brought about a
paradigm shift in civil rights strategy. Instead of working through the courts, African Americans were taking their cause literally to the streets by walking rather than riding
the segregated buses. And yet, even though the bus boycott was game changing
success in the sense that it invented the next stage of protest, the actual desegregation
of Montgomerys buses came about as a result a lawsuit filed by Marshalls own
NAACP. I, for example, as a child of the segregated South, ended up in a position to
write critically about why white people behaved the way they did. Thurgood Marshall
turned everything he was and did into an appointment to the Supreme Court, as the first
African American justice.
