No. Thurgood Marshall was the first African-American US Supreme Court justice. President Lyndon Johnson nominated Justice Marshall to the Court in 1967, where he served until his retirement in 1991. Prior to serving on the Supreme Court, he was US Solicitor General from 1965-1967. In 1957 attorney Thurgood Marshall founded and became President-Director of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, a legal group associated with the NAACP that fought for civil rights. Thurgood Marshall was a brilliant attorney and judge with a passion for civil and human rights. He was able to affect greater change in 24 years on the Supreme Court bench than he could have in four or eight years as US President.
Malcolm X had a strong animosity to the famous Federal Judge Thurgood Marshall. Malcolm X had a long memory and recalled the words of Marshall when he was the chief attorney for the NAACP. In that capacity, Marshall referred to Black Muslims as a group run by a bunch of former prison thugs and Marshall believed the Nation of Islam was financed by an Arab group. This is a paraphrase from the writings of Malcolm X.
Thurgood Marshall became an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. He was the first African-American justice.
