THREAD: (1/2) #OTD, in 1967, Thurgood Marshall received confirmation by the Senate to become our 1st Af-Am Justice to serve on the US Supreme Court.
His leadership and stature are unmatched as he spoke out against injustices, like dismantling "separate but equal" in our schools.

(2/2) Fast forward and Rs are pushing through SCOTUS nominee, Judge Kavanaugh, whose records on women's rights, civil rights, & LGBTQ rights are more than murky. His confirmation would set our country back decades and that's why my Dem colleagues & I will continue to fight!
