This was truly a great man, with intelligence, insight and drive. Truly an inspirational person. But I believe Rep. Cummings and Rep. Lewis were outstanding people as well. The more like them we have, the better it will be. One needs to look past someone's color to see the person inside.

@@Amdnfdnxjisjsdn After what Trump managed to accomplish in his first term with things such as criminal justice reform, school choice, historical long term record funding for HBCUs, record low unemployment, amazing wage increase, lower taxes, etc? Definitely. If they voted for Trump they would've gained capital like crazy. His $500B platinum plan investment to open up over 500.000 black owned businesses.. What do you think black people are getting now? What do you think the black community needs? Financial independence was Trump his goal. Financial enslavement is that of the DNC. Trump did more for the black community in four years than Obama and Bush did combined in 16.

I love Mr. Marshall he was such an intelligent, strong, & powerful black man. I was recently watching the film made about him in the last few years and, found myself screaming at the TV. “You go Mr. Marshall you a bad man, they better not play with Thurgood, he ain’t the one” 😂 it’s like I was saying the things I would if he was here in our time.
