Best Answer

The NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) and the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, which was a subgroup of the organization. The NAACP was instrumental in advancing the civil rights of African-Americans by locating suitable plaintiffs and providing legal support for challenging discriminatory laws across the United States.

Late Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall won 29 of 32 cases he argued before the US Supreme Court as lead counsel for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in the 1950s and early 1960s. Marshall argued Brown v. Board of Education, (1954) before the Court twice - in 1952 and 1953 - because Chief Justice Earl Warren wanted the attorneys on the case to submit briefs arguing whether the 14th Amendment was intended to allow segregation.
