• Our light brown crew socks with navy accents feature a striking portrait of the late Associate Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. Made of high-quality combed cotton to ensure both comfort and durability. The navy blue accents around the cuffs, heels, and toes add a touch of elegance, while the socks' overall design pays homage to a trailblazing figure in American history.

  National Archives branding on the foot symbolizes Marshall's contributions to uphold the Constitution, which is held in trust for the American people at the Archives in Washington, D.C. This unique design makes them not only comfortable to wear but also a stylish way to show appreciation for Marshall's legacy.

African American history is deeply woven into the fabric of the United States, from the struggles of slavery and segregation to the ongoing fight for civil rights and justice.

The National Archives preserves and protects a wealth of African American history records, including records from the slave trade, civil rights cases, photographs, military records, and the writings of activists, artists, and everyday citizens. These records document the lives, contributions, and resilience of Black Americans across centuries.

On the African American Research page, the National Archives provides online access to records documenting African American history in collections that focus on the Black Power movement, voting rights, mass migrations, and more. Featured records include the March on Washington and President Barack Obama.
