Authors Notes Tuskegee, Alabama, Rosa Parks
birthplace, was the home of the Tuskegee
Institute, now called Tuskegee University. It
was founded in 1881 by Booker T. Washington as a
place for African Americans to learn the work
skills needed to earn a livelihood. The lawyer
presenting the arguments against segregated
schools which led to the 1954 Supreme Court
decision declaring that separate schools for
whites and African Americans are illegal, was
Thurgood Marshall. In 1967 he was made the first
African American associate justice of the United
States Supreme Court.
