A) Thurgood Marshall is considered the best American lawyer our country has ever seen. He earned this praise from the hard work he performed in many positions. He worked for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He worked as a federal judge. Next he worked as a solicitor general. Marshall wanted a position on the Supreme Court, which he received in 1967. He served for twenty four years as the first African American on the Supreme Court.
B) Thurgood Marshall graduated from Howard University Law School in 1933. He worked at his own law practice for three years. Then he went to work for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a civil rights group. By 1961 he was ready for a change and needed to earn more money. President Kennedy asked Marshall to become a federal judge for the United States Court of Appeals in New York. Later he became a judge on the Supreme Court. This was a position he always wanted.
C) Thurgood Marshall held many important positions as lawyer. He hoped the jobs might lead to an appointment to the Supreme Court. He was right. President Johnson appointed Marshall to the United States Supreme Court in 1967. He was the first African-American Supreme Court justice. President Johnson said it was "the right thing to do, the right time to do it, the right man and the right place." Although there was some dissent, the country had changed and Marshall was approved by the Senate. He served for twenty four years.
D) Thurgood Marshall had a long and successful legal career beginning in 1933 when he became a lawyer in private practice. He worked for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Racism among senators delayed his appointment as a federal judge for almost a year, but the African American lawyer became a federal judge in 1962. Next he worked as a solicitor general. Marshall wanted a position on the Supreme Court, which he received in 1967. He served for twenty four years as the first African American on the Supreme Court.
