Thurgood Marshall's extraordinary contribution to civil rights and overcoming racism is more topical than ever, as the national debate on race and the overturning of affirmative action policies make headlines nationwide. Howard Ball, author of eighteen books on the Supreme Court and the federal judiciary, has done copious research for this incisive biography to present an authoritative portrait of Marshall the jurist. Born to a middle-class black family in "Jim Crow" Baltimore at the turn of the century, Marshall's race informed his worldview from an early age. He was rejected by the University of Maryland Law School because of the color of his skin. He then attended Howard University's Law School, where his racial consciousness was awakened by the brilliant lawyer and activist Charlie Houston. Marshall suddenly knew what he wanted to be: a civil rights lawyer, one of Houston's "social engineers." As the chief attorney for the NAACP, he developed the strategy for the legal challenge to racial discrimination. His soaring achievements and his lasting impact on the nation's legal system--as the NAACP's advocate, as a federal appeals court judge, as President Lyndon Johnson's solicitor general, and finally as the first African American Supreme Court Justice--are symbolized by Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark case that ended legal segregation in public schools. Using race as the defining theme, Ball spotlights Marshall's genius in working within the legal system to further his lifelong commitment to racial equality. With the help of numerous, previously unpublished sources, Ball presents a lucid account of Marshall's illustrious career and his historic impact on American civil rights.Binding Type: Paperback

Quiet and easy to install on your car or SUV. Good quality blades.
Size: 24"/18"/14"
Wiper blades were easy to put on and come with an easy to follow instructional booklet. Wiper blades themselves are constructed well and made of quality rubber material. The other advantage is they come with all three blades which saves you time and money. Took about 10-15 minutes to replace all three wiper blades which can be done without any tools. The blades are quiet and so far do not cause any streaking. I recommend these blades if you’re looking for OEM quality blades that are easily replaceable and quieter than old blades that need replacing. They work well in heavy rainstorms.

Perfect fit at a perfect price!
Size: 26"/24"/14"
I was hesitant at first with buying an all-in-one set. In the past, I had to buy the windshield wipers separate from the rear due to compatibility issues. I read the reviews and took a chance. The material quality far exceeds what the price would suggest. The size matched the old blades. They look sturdy and will hold up over time. The instructions are mostly pictures but that proved to be enough. All you have to do is remove your old wiper blade. Identify the wiper arm end. Find that style on the installation sheet. Identify what clip configuration is needed for your wiper arm end from the same installation sheet. You may have to remove some layers of the new wiper blade assembly. It's easy to do since they are clipped on top of one another. For my 2021 Honda Pilot I had to remove the top two pieces to expose the type of clip I needed. It just snapped into place with minimal effort. Once both were installed I tested them by cycling wipes with wiper fluid. No streaks told me I had consistent contact throughout the wipe cycle. The back was simple. I had to rotate the old blade all the way around until the blade faced upward. Then I supported the wiper arm while I pulled the old blade out and away. The new blade is installed facing upward. As you rotated the blade downward, apply pressure towards the wiper arm and the blade will snap into place. I tested with a wiped cycle and the blade had constant contact with the glass. Crystal clear vision at the front and back. I will trust this brand with my other car, a 2017 Volvo XC60, and submit a review at that time. Order now! Operators are standing by!

High quality, great performance
Size: 28"/14"/14"
I was impressed by the quality of this product. It was a little tricky figuring out how to put them on at first, but once I did, it was actually very easy. This is a product that I will plan on purchasing again in the future!
