In 1954, Thurgood Marshall, a lawyer with the NAACP, argued that separation was inherently—meaning by nature—not equal. The Supreme Court sided with Marshall. Thurgood Marshall would later become the first black justice on the Supreme Court. The ruling in Brown v. Board of Education did not bring Jim Crow to an end. Doing so came as a result of the Civil Rights Movement. Dedicated activists and groups led initiatives focusing on different arenas of segregation. Sit-ins worked to desegregate lunch counters. Freedom Riders worked to desegregate interstate buses and terminals. Marches in Selma, Alabama, worked to ensure voting rights first promised by the 15th Amendment 85 years earlier. Slowly, and as a result of great effort and bravery, the laws and customs of Jim Crow disappeared, and new federal protections for all people were put into place.
