Clarence Thomas Breaks a Three-Year Silence at Supreme Court
Justice Thomas asked questions in the case of Curtis Flowers, who has been tried six times for murder. The court will decide whether jury selection was marred by racial discrimination.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thurgood_Marshall
"Marshall retired from the Supreme Court in 1991 due to declining health. In his retirement press conference on June 28, 1991, he expressed his view that race should not be a factor in choosing his successor, and he denied circulating claims that he was retiring because of frustration or anger over the conservative direction in which the Court was heading.[27] He was reportedly unhappy that it would fall to President George H. W. Bush to name his replacement.[28] Bush nominated Clarence Thomas to replace Marshall."

I recall that Marshall was quoted on the appointment of Clarence Thomas:
The Court needs a black man but not this nigger.
I agree with Marshall.
