What did thurgood marshall do as a hobbies and interests?

his hobbies are poetry and music. Here is a site that discusses his Talents and accomplishments: (excerpt) Georgetown University Law Professor Thomas Krattenmaker said of Thurgood Marshall, "He is certainly the most important lawyer of the twentieth century." Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell, universally described as a true Southern white gentleman, said of Thurgood Marshall, "He, in my opinion, did more to establish equal justice under the law than Martin Luther King or any other single individual."


Why should we recognize Thurgood Marshall during black history month?

For one thing, he was the first African American justice of the Supreme Court. Prior to his appointment to the Supreme Court, and among other accomplishments, he was the founder and executive director of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund. In that position he argued several cases before the Supreme Court, including Brown v. Board of Education, which held that racial segregation in public schools is a violation of the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause. Recently I read that, long before Thurgood Marshall became a Supreme Court justice, he was chased through the streets of Dallas by either the mayor, or some other Dallas politician, wielding an axe. I think it was in Bill Mintaglio's book "Dallas 1963". If I come across the passage again, I'll make any necessary corrections to the information and cite a source.
