Even before his “firsts,” though, Marshall was making history. As an NAACP lawyer, Marshall argued against unjust laws and practices, some of which had been in place for decades.
argued against segregation: idea that facilities for African Americans and for whites were “Separate but Equal”—idea was used to justify segregation. Marshall’s argument: excluding African American students from white schools meant their education could not be equal. (example: study showed segregation lowered self-confidence.)
coerced confessions: argued that the court should throw out confession a suspect made that was coerced or forced by the police. Protecting rights of individual. Lost a highly publicized case, but still made significant contribution to the cause.
