Plaintiffs in
Brown v. Board

"Before lawyers can win cases there have to be clients willing to stand up for their rights. The American blacks who proved willing to fight segregation and discrimination were organized for the most part by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in an environment hostile to change in the kind of justice afforded blacks."
(Greenberg, Crusaders In The Courts, 1994)
