Preferred term
Thurgood Marshall
Definition
- Thurgood Marshall (1908–1993), the first African American to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, consistently protected the Fourth Amendment rights of criminal defendants during his tenure on the high court. His colleague, Justice William J. Brennan, referred to Marshall as “one of our century's legal giants” (1991, 23). [Source: Encyclopedia of the Fourth Amendment; Marshall, Thurgood]
