to gain rights/equality for african americans
Marshall was the first African American justice and spent his life fighting for equality. As a young man he had experienced discrimination first hand.

De facto means: In fact (in Latin) it describes a practice which has no legal or official status. De facto equality therefore means public equality - equality that is not legal. e.g: Civil Rights act in the 60s meant there was equality for black people. But there was no de facto equality. So white people still (or at first) didn't treat black people as equals.
