Attorney Jasmine N. Pope took part in a powerful Black History Month event hosted by the Baltimore County Bar Association in Baltimore County honoring the legacy of Thurgood Marshall.

The event featured a reenactment of one of Marshall’s early cases—Williams v. Zimmerman, a 1937 challenge to segregation in Maryland public high schools that marked an early step in his fight for educational equity and civil rights.

Bringing this moment back to life served as a reminder of how local cases helped shape the broader movement for justice and equality. In recognition of Black History Month, we celebrate the attorneys, studen ts, and communities who continue to carry this legacy forward.
